- In this video from the White House, Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews performs "St. James Infirmary" with special guest Booker T. Jones and the White House band in February 2012.
This guy's got an unreal set of lungs. Going right into singing after that amazing solo
Pretty sure he circular breathes at some points, you can see how his cheeks puff up a ton then slowly get smaller without taking a breath. Absolutely insane player.
Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!! Pastor Murray is an Anointed Servant of GOD who teaches the Word of GOD with Authority!!!!!!!
@@wilhelm4948 almost sure the puffed cheeks are just a habit of his.
@@wilhelm4948 He's actually really good at circular breathing
@@liambrier5353 I mean I would fucking hope, holy shit this guy is amazing
From 2:38 and onwards the drummers facial expressions are just pure gold
Passion, intensity, the moment of your life, finish strong, 4th quarter, overtime, 10 secs to greatness, land it, wait...WAIT!, finish him, fatality- drummer wins, flawless victory.
Thank you so much for that 😁🙏🏻
Thank you SO MUCH
Also this version of that song is my least favorite sadly, but that face, that man, gave it a 10/10
what is the drummer's name?
imagine be so good trombonist, Fred Wesley is playing 2nd trombone, behind you.. what?
Lol
Great observation about Fred playing 2nd trombone and yes Fred Wesley is real class act for taking second trombone to let trombone shorty do his thing.
What is the name of the trombone player?
I am a trombone player and I basically look up to trombone shorty
I guess no matter who you are, if you have the chance to play at white house you'll do it no matter what ;)
Make the White House groove again!
The Martial Arts Approach ?
LaToya Crisp White House needs some groovin
Trump ain't got an ounce of groove man, no chance.
@@jacobsims8307 😞😞 Clinton jouait du saxophone, si je me souviens bien 🤗🤗
@@jacobsims8307 Better than the muslim sympathizing impostor from kenya.
Anyone else catch that at 2:00 after the last note he went straight into singing without taking a breath? I was impressed
but... He took a breath...
@@BoomerangVillage lmao
It looks to me like the upslide of the smear a breath was taken at around the third slide position. Still, a well timed display
he did take a breath
This guy can Circular breath like no one's business, I think he'd be fine
0:12 George Washington: "Ladies and Gentlemen... Trombone Shorty!"
Severely under-liked comment right here
“Da fuck is dis”
lmao
"is this Hamilton?"
Jorge washeton
Seriously might be one of the best trombone solos recorded.
Look up Wyclef Gordon..
Depends. Kinda short so maybe didn’t have enough time to do as much cool stuff as a longer one.
Maybe here lately , but it used to be in every band and this performance while great isn’t new at the best, I’m just glad to see this song still being a played
Black and blues trombone. Thank me later

Nothing like talent from New Orleans. Everybody got swag. Trombone Shorty parade is awesome every year. It is a treat to be there. So much fun. He has a look of class.
My man on the drums was *FEELIN' IT!*
Not to mention Ms. Obama on his sweater 😂😂😉👍🏿
@@kristinemunholland8980 True!
2:44 keep looking at that guys face playing drums
ME TOO XDDDDDDD
akperson 554 he is like wtf.
akperson 554 he,'s like come on. Come on. Yes don't crack a note
payday 2 he was busting some mean nut
Joseph Walker yep
he actually inspired me to start playing trombone !!!
He is reinspiring me to pick up my trombone after about 14 years.i was actually very good and now regret putting down my instrument.
when did you start?
@@JAHDCypha me too... younger 14 yr old me coulda played this solo with good practice :')
@@elividal9888 yessir.music saved my life growing go in the islands during high school. While my other classmates were involved in neighbourhood gun wars ,east vs west etc..i Was involved in concert band, Jazz Band And later we the juniors started the marching band (back when we wore t shirts with our School barracuda logo😂).did this all while playing Football the real football lol⚽) ...but I miss it..jazz band especially . taught me to be a very good Swing, blues and Latin Jazz player..improv time in band class / after school practice was my favorite part 🙏🙏
@@JAHDCypha oh me too. I started playin in within the year got from beginning to advanced band in middle school, got better at high school and loved jazz and marching band. Then stopped playing and I feel like I have to relearn the whole dang instrument 😂
2:35 I just can’t get enough of the drummers face from this point forward 🤣
He is so happy to be there
It's literally all of us rn
The solo at 1:18 I get chills every single time
I love this part
i must say...i am in awe of Trombone Shorty and the rest of the band for "sexifying" such a heavy song...and a special shout out to the bass guitarist
What I really love about this is that they all look like their having so much fun
Especially the drummer
What a great funky version. It's usually played slow as a dirge. This is kicking. Especially the Bass line. What a version. I didn't think you could make a second line version of this NoLa classic
Well done 👍
You are definitely mistaken.
@@power966
What am I mistaken about, dear?
youve never heard Trombone Shorty, until youve heard that sound echoing through the buildings in DT Rochester NY at the RIJF. Literally the entire city could sit in their backyards and hear from every neighborhood.
I'm used to hearing this song played as a dirge, but it works pretty nicely as a Mambo too. This is pretty epic. The solo was 🔥🔥🔥!
You are definitely mistaken.
@@power966 How so?
Glad they brought in a New Orleans musician to play a jazz standard, even if it's shown in a popular light. One great aspect of pop music is that it can make less accessible or "outdated" music more accessible to wider audiences. The thing with Troy Andrews (Trombone Shorty) is that many would actually consider him a legitimate jazz musician, despite the several genres he crosses over into. Versatile cat
I just found this and it got me into more jazz as of recent! It really got me interested in the genre.
I love this version of St. James infirmary !
Watched this so many times and just noticed that the mic starts falling at 2:47. Good on that sound guy to pump the gain real quick.
Andrew Howell it’s so good I always get tingles
I saw Trombone Shorty live in 2016 as a young brass player. His ability to play and sing so beautifully and monstrously is just magical
The chemistry of this band is amazing. They really trusted each other, and that made their timing phenomenal
If you’re wondering what brand trombone he has, he’s got a BAC Custom. I got one too, absolutely amazing looking and sounding
Thanks
BAC’s in my experience have been nothing but bad horns but yours might be different
C4pt41nN3m0 I’m not saying all BAC’s are bad i’m just saying there’s some better horns for the same price
C4pt41nN3m0 i said the ones i’ve tried were nothing but bad
Elow Cow I have a French made costom one very expensive😓buh i prolly have the best sounding horn in my entire band so was definitely worth the investment
Hey! That's Fred Wesley on Trombone in the back, He played with James Brown, in case you didn't know!
Wow! Then his yet another ICON!!
fred weasley from harry potter
Thanks for the 411! Mr. Wesley probably showed Trombone Shorty some technique. JAMES BROWN, may he RIP, had the BEST band.
He played with Maceo Parker too
Damn that’s really cool that you could point that out
2:44 - 3:02 the drummer's face is how I look during a meeting realizing I shouldn't have had spicy food for lunch. Phenomenal performance though.
Back when the White House had real spirit and heart, and knew how to rock. And could get good artists to play there. I love Trombone Shorty!
AvalonMorley couldn't agree more. It is going to take a while to clean the stench of the current resident
This isn't even a real or validated criticism you're just looking for excuses to bash Trump at this point lmao
@@carolingian5736 fax
AvalonMorley I mean they still killed kids in Yemen😐
Ian Ian public? You mean the private crowd in the audience that was invited by the host? I mean where your coming from but for real? public events by the president are just a waste of time and it’s too much stress for everyone involved. Just go to a concert. There’s lots of free events around your city if you look.
Remember when he was actually short?
Fred Wesley on backup Trombone ... Amazing!
Thanks for confirming my suspicion :)
All you need is Maceo!
Love the drummer's facial expressions lol
Especially from here 2:42 till the end😂😂😂
The stankiest of faces
He’s literally jizzing himself to Trombone Shorty.
Drummers always have the best animated faces lol
Do we miss this or do we miss this
The drummer dressed for the wrong gig
Luggage got lost on the flight. Lol
@@lamar1404 Not only that he looks like a confused thumb.
@@somebloke7056 This drummer plays super tight and he's wearing a Michelle Obama vest at the White House. He knows exactly what he's doing :p
he spilt cocktail sauce over his suit, and he didn't have time to find a new suit but saw a dollar store and got that
@@jackc6378 Haha no no no, this guy had that vest for YEARS and was just waiting for the perfect moment to wear it. He found it :p
I can't believe I used to see this man as a kid at The Funky Butt. New Orleans oozes world talent.
THAT DRUMMER JUST GAVE ME LIFE AT THE END!!!!!
And who loves this amazing man in 2024??? I know I do ❤
Ringing in the New Years with Trombone Shorty sounds bout right. Welcome 2024, let’s stomp this one out
This is why America is the greatest Country on Earth!!!
no lol
How the hell was this uploaded about 3 Years Ago, and the only comments are less than a week old?
Finn Wilson wondering the same thing
Finn Wilson right
UA-cam's AI has decided it's time for the algorithm to change.
I just now found this video. That's why!
Facts
I’m from New Orleans from the uptown 17th ward area and I must say I’m really impressed at how fantastically talented my home boy trombone Shorty is 🫡 and this song 🎶 is piercing to soul wow I’m working out to some jazz music and I just found this song and it’s amazing …👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 God bless good music
I read trombone shorty book to my class(kindergarten) and also play this video to them. At the end of the video, the kids just can’t help but clapping their hands! Some came to me said “this is awesome “. Thank you Trombone shorty! The kids were having a great time enjoying your music!
Nobody does it quite like shorty man he got that swing
Shout out to my teacher in 5th grade for introducing me to this beautiful music his name is mr white
Whaaaaaaaaa
Same
My sub teacher was telling me about him rn and hes allowing me to use my phone just to listen to this
Was his first name by chance Walter?
So excited to see him in June!
I met Shorty at New Orleans for a band trip
Really cool guy
My dude pulling a Cab Calloway homage, I dig it. Also good on him for having Fred Wesley backing him!
I was looking for a comment confirming that it's Fred Wesley
No way - is that THE Tim Heilmann from Exhibit A???
I was wondering why it reminded me of Minnie the moocher.
Mind blowing musicianship and he can sing too!
You can say what you will about this trombone dude, but the drummer is the MVP here, from the body to the clothes to the facial expressions.
Listened too this 30 times today
Absolutely Amazing! Talent! Pure Gold
If anyone can find music for this I'll love them forever
THIS dude right HERE!!!
I remember when Trombone Shorty was a child playing in the Treme area.
NOLA knew they were witnessing a Star.
Him going to the sharp 11 at the end was the best moment in history
Man this put a big smile on my face, absolutely loved it
I've now changed my opinion abt trombone. Apparently I'd never heard the right song done the right way b4 now. 😳
Can’t stop watching this
2:35 the drummers going through a whole range of emotions
Don’t you just love the drummers facial expressions.
Just Luv this guy.
Plays a real Mean Trumpet as well.
What a performance! And that lion’s-roar of a trombone crescendo…
Damn he looks like he knew what he was doing since he was born
Man I miss Bourbon Street so much to hear that jazz in New Orleans😎
That drummer is having fun 😂
He's incredible. New Orleans heart and soul. Didn't know he played for them, but it makes sense. They know good music.
I know I'm late but this was very good musically and the band flawless performance!☺
I cant get over the drummer face during the final trombone solo😭
Beautiful
Young man is so talented. I know the crowd always gets a big thrill out of his circular breathing, but those triple or quadruple or whatever tong that he does amaze the crap out of me.
Born and raised in the 504 no place like it. He is an inspiration to the world.
Trombone Shorty, c'est très bien, et il a une très belle voix. Super moment à la maison blanche. Heureux de voir le Président et sa femme.
How the heck does this not have millions of views
One of his best...hands down...in my opinion
As a trombonist I can verify that…
This is awesome!
3 minutes and 21 seconds of sweet greatness.
Perfect everything
Awesomeness!!!!! It never gets old.👍🏽❤️🖤💚🎶
God I love this style he added
2:50 look at Walden’s face when shorty was playing
hes in awe
Trombone Shorty played with Prince in 2014 at his last concert in New Orleans. He was awesome!
Trombone Shorty is a fucking beast. Mr. Wesley there in the back was impressed and proud as fuck of him haha
This man just made the FIRST LADY do the stank face
Man he should do this again in a month or two!
i was only 1 years old when this song came out.
This is soooo good !
It’s amazing how he can
sing and play trombone
New Orleans in the house ya'll
This gave me chills because of how good it is
Absolutely Fabulous!!! Thank you.
I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤩
Saw this dude at the RHCP concert last year. It was dope af
Fred Wesley passes the torch.
Trombone Shorty Is RIDICULOUS!
wow and wow
Imagine playing in front of Obama like that
A career highlight for sure!
Imagine having to act presidential during that bone solo...
1:13 BRO GOT OBAMA SINGING
Sir your my idol in the world
What an absolutely delightful performance! Trombone Shorty is a favorite of mine and love this song. Effortless. And can we talk about that drummer? Is that Michelle Obama's face on his vest. Those facial expressions truly are pure gold. I was feeling a bit defeated until I watched this performance and I now feel fresh and ready to take on the world.
That machine gun trombone at @1:50 is soooo nasty!
Ikr that growl sounded like a machine gun
and booker t on organ too? what an ensemble
🎉fire bro you killed it
I r,keener watching this in class. This is the only song I heard in class that I’ve like in my entire life lol
