Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue bringen den hammerharten Funk in den Jazz zurück!
Nach seinem begeistert aufgenommenen und für einen Grammy nominierte Debüt-Album "Backatown" und kochend-heißen Konzerten in Deutschland ist die Zeit reif für das Follow-Up-Album "For True". Die "altmodische" Dixieland-Posaune wird in den Händen von Trombone Shorty zum angesagten Funk / Rock / Jazz-Instrument. Fürs Neulingswerk "For True" konnte Trombone Shorty hochkarätige Gäste um sich scharen: Lenny Kravitz, Jeff Beck, Warren Haynes, Kid Rock & Ledisi. Doch trotz all dieser Gaststars, sind es Trombone Shorty und seine Band Orleans Avenue, die
auf "For True" unüberhörbar den Ton angeben. Die Hauptingredienzen ihrer Songs sind auch wie zuvor eine kräftige Mischung aus New-Orleans-Jazz, -Funk und -Soul alter Schule, angereichert mit fetzigen Rockriffs und HipHop-Beats.
Product Information
Produced By Galactic's Ben Ellman; Featuring Guest Appearances By Jeff Beck, Kid Rock, Lenny Kravitz, Ledisi, Warren Haynes, Ivan And Cyril Neville, The Rebirth Brass Band And More
Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews follows his Grammy nominated Backatown‚ CD with For True to be released Sept 13 on Verve Forecast. For True‚ features Andrews' band, Orleans Avenue, as well as a string of legendary performers with whom he recently shared the stage, including Jeff Beck, Kid Rock, Lenny Kravitz, Ledisi, Warren Haynes, Ivan and Cyril Neville, The Rebirth Brass Band and more. Troy wrote or co-wrote all 14 tracks on the new album including co-writes with Ledisi, Kid Rock, the legendary Lamont Dozier and more. The CD was produced and engineered by Ben Ellman (except "The Craziest Thing" produced by George Drakoulias).
The singer / songwriter / multi-instrumentalist has earned unanimous raves on 5 continents in the past year alone with his patented high energy 'SUPAFUNKROCK' sound. He was praised in the media from Rolling Stone and Entertainment Weekly to NPR and the New York Times following the 2010 release of Backatown, which spent 10 weeks at #1 on Billboard's Contemporary Jazz Chart and still reigns in the top 10 over a year after its release. Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue have been everywhere since, performing on The Late Show With David Letterman, The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Austin City Limits and more. Troy has made additional appearances on Good Morning America, Tavis Smiley, NFL Kickoff (joining Dave Matthews Band), ESPN and a recurring role on the hit HBO series Tremé, on which he played himself.
In December 2010 Andrews brought an all-star lineup from NOLA to New York as musical director for the landmark 'Red Hot + New Orleans' concert event at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Broad based respect for Andrews' virtuosity and versatility is exemplified by a list of performances at events as varied as Bonnaroo, and Jam Cruise to Japan's Fuji Rock Fest, Australia's Byron Bay Blues Festival, the prestigious Montreux, Newport, and Playboy (at Hollywood Bowl) Jazz Festivals, Philadelphia Folk Festival, San Francisco's Hardly Strictly Bluegrass and a Reggae Festival in Germany in addition to festivals as far flung as Brazil and Singapore plus tour dates with Jeff Beck and Dave Matthews Band.
Andrews has built his reputation on "blistering, bold, exuberant and cutting edge" (USA Today) live performances and is currently on tour with Orleans Avenue.

Rezensionen
,,Auf dem neuen Album ,,For True" spielt von Jeff Beck bis Lennie Kravitz jede Menge Pop-Prominenz mit - doch Trombone Shorty und seine Stammband begeistern auch alleine." (Stereo, Oktober 2011)
,,,,For True" hat alles, was ein Dauerbrenner braucht: Musik, die direkt in
die Beine fährt und nicht durch allzu komplexe Arrangements in ihrer Unterhaltungsfähigkeit gebremst wird; ein Musikerteam, das deutlich hörbar Spaß daran hat, den Sound von Motown & more wieder aufleben zu lassen; und außerdem einen juvenilen, kraftstrotzenden Bandleader, der nicht nur herausragend Posaune und Trompete spielen sowie bemerkenswert singen kann, sondern mit seinem funky Cocktail auch noch unermüdlich um die Welt tourt. Sehr lässig." (Audio, November 2011)
,,Das erste Album ,,Backatown" von Trombone Shorty war schon eine Sensation. Sein neuester Streich ,,For True" kann nicht nur locker mithalten, ohne bereits Gehörtes erneut aufzuwärmen, sondern ist auch musikalisch wieder ein absoluter Knaller." (Jazz Zeitung)
