Shorty on PBS NewsHour's Artbeat

PBS NewsHour caught up with Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue during the band's recent two-night sold out run at Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club.

PBS' Saskia De Melker writes in the post, "Andrews' desire to carry on the New Orleans tradition doesn't keep him from putting his own twist on it. His music defies any particular genre. Rather, it brings together old and new styles of jazz, which he fuses with rock, funk, soul and hip-hop."
