Center Presents: Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue

Born to a well-known New Orleans musical family, Troy “Trombone Shorty” Andrews has  become a top young standard-bearer for the city’s unique legacy of sound. Since 2010, he has released four chart-topping studio albums; collaborated with artists including Pharrell, Bruno Mars and Foo Fighters; played Coachella, Bonnaroo, Newport Jazz and other major festivals; and launched a charitable foundation to support youth music education. His new album, Lifted, finds the Grammy nominee and his bandmates tapping the power of their legendary live show with explosive performances that blur the lines between jazz, funk, R&B and psychedelic rock.
