I work in a music venue and they played our club recently. It was overwhelmingly agreed upon by the staff that their show was one of the best we have ever had. Rarely do we have on our stage that much talent, having that much fun, making the entire club want to move. Amazing. I hope they're back soon.
I think the most entertaining part of these tiny desk concerts is watching musicians maintain the intensity of the music while lowering the volume to match the space being played in. It's truly a show of control and attention to detail.
Logan i saw these guys live this last summer, hearing them play when they don’t have limits is a seriously exhilarating feeling. i was like four feet away from the whole band, they had two drummers, and another saxophone with them. seriously amazing
The rabbit hole brought me here. Unbelievable! Just saw Trombone Shorty playing House of the Rising Sun with Mumford and Son's. So glad I stopped by. You are remarkable! Every single one of you!
8 or so years ago, went to a show. Great, as always. Went back to hotel. Elevator door opens, and who’s on it. Drummer, headed to the basement with a basket full of laundry in his arms
I saw Shorty and Orleans Ave. perform in Germany, and I was surprised by the sheer amount of talent of every individual in the band. If you ever have a chance to see a performance, don’t miss the opportunity. Who Dat!
Heard these guys a few years ago in NJ, just moved to Utah & SO excited for a chance to check ‘em out again tonight @ Red Butte Garden! I love the energy & joy in the sound ❤️🎼
Young people have talent, they just lack exposure and guidance, something we all lost along the way; but thank God for those that didn't forget and passed this kind of thing on.
Shorty and his crew are the best...and this is coming from an "old" person. Ha! Saw him a few times at the Jazz Festival in Rochester and recently at a casino. He's always the perfect entertainer...respectful of his audience no matter their age...from little kids to us "old" folks. It's easy to love him when you feel the love he pours out!
Jazz is still alive and will never die! It warms my heart to know that people are keeping the sound alive and well. I hear some wonderful and classic jazz influences here. Reminds me of early 1970s Dizzy Gillespie.
Brian Clendinen And na pe Stop this foolishness. This is not SKA at all or straight up jazz. na pe is right that there's classic jazz influences- It's mix of funk, rock, and jazz. But to say that jazz is alive is wrong too, shorty's sound is very distinct.
Forget jazz,ska, or whatever THIS music is very much alive & the ska people or the jazz people can both take a little bit from this AWESOME band so stop arguing you both like it anyways agree on that
Love love love Troy Trombone Shorty. This man represents real MUSIC. He will show you exactly what he represents as he ends a show, holding above his head a trombone and a trumpet. His music is classy, soulful, funky, and pure. Don’t think I’ve ever heard a single four letter word on any track he’s ever recorded. This is real music.
And that was just a little taste of his talent. If he's ever in your town you got to see him and wear something very comfortable because you will dance right out your shoes. NOLA 4 LIFE BABY!
Found this gem about a year ago and listen to it over and over! So virtuose, so energetic so full of love. Cool stuff like this shows me --> there are wonderful people out there! Love
I live on Dumaine St. That first block up from Decatur. It’s a very musical street. I kept giving my spare change to this musician that sang really late at night. Turns out he was actually just yelling at invisible people. But something about New Orleans man, made it sound like music.
TROMBONE SHORRTTTYY!! You, Kermit and Dirty Dozen Brass band made me fall in love with Trab jazz!! All the way from Philly but looking forward to high steppin wherever possible in the NO real soon💯. Very funky sir
No doubt-- they str8 rocked it! Left us begging for more. The way it should b dun. Luv this nu school of Naw'lins jazz artists who are keeping the art form alive.
Thank you kindly, NPR for hosting these talented musicians and uploading them here so we can access them with ease. This video and the Booker T. Jones video were absolute treats.
these guys are the real deal! found this by accident. i'm very pleased that i did. i know what will be in constant rotation for the next few months in my CD player. good shite!
How have I not had Trombone Shorty in my life?? Google "O Holy Night Studio 60 (no dialogue)" for a sublime version of the Christmas carol with Shorty on trumpet. This man is genius on any horn he picks up!!
2011 wow, just finding these guys today on a random recommended youtube video called "when you don't have to breath". I love this sound - to me it has a little background go-go beat to it, as well as some funk and jazz. They are awesome!

What a gorgeous vibe!!
what club
@@esteecervantes4265 yes please - venue name or town / city? Just curious
Petition to bring Trombone Shorty back for another concert!!
There is no part of life that can't be improved by a horn section.
koolaidk1ss but there’s only one horn lol
Ben Zervigon he IS a horn section
@@benzervigon7303 I count 3...
Amen,Koolaid!
Amen to that brother

That is such a great point
This man can bring a party to a cubicle. Most energetic human in the south.
Played trombone for 15 years and then kind of gave it up. I could've been so cool. This man is a legend.
The rabbit hole brought me here. Unbelievable! Just saw Trombone Shorty playing House of the Rising Sun with Mumford and Son's. So glad I stopped by. You are remarkable! Every single one of you!
That was at Jazz Fest in NOLA. Have you ever been? We went this year for the first time and saw Trombone Shorty a couple of times. He is awesome!
So nobody gonna talk about how clean that Bari was? Or how crisp the Shorty's triplet tonguing sounded?
This is why I love NPR. NPR has turned me on to so much great music!!!
A perfect example of an ensemble when there is trust, respect and love for all involved.
Every time I see this drummer, he's always smiling so big and just rocking the fuck out. Awesome. These guys are so hype.
That is what happens when you do what you love for a living.
Woke
That is the great Herlin Riley. One of the best.
8 or so years ago, went to a show. Great, as always. Went back to hotel. Elevator door opens, and who’s on it. Drummer, headed to the basement with a basket full of laundry in his arms
@@FMZContralto ummmmm nope - that’s definitely not the great Herlin Riley!

GOTCHA!!🤑👍👍👍💥💥
The 74 thumbs down were addressed by Frank Zappa years ago when he said most people wouldn't know music if it came up and bit them on the ass.
Agree 100% !!
The band sounds natural and relaxed while popping out some tight grooves, very nice.
whew think I just fell in love with Mr. Trombone Shorty!!!
Just learned about him thru my grandson's class!!! YES, I LOVE IT!!!
Heard these guys a few years ago in NJ, just moved to Utah & SO excited for a chance to check ‘em out again tonight @ Red Butte Garden! I love the energy & joy in the sound ❤️🎼
Wow . I’m ignorant to this kind of music and live it . I wish I knew more . This is 12 years ago ? Why no recent comments ?? This is gold !
Have you seen the video of him playing at the White house? That's a great one too!
@@marciawalters1733 Washington D.C.
Pure Gold. Welcome aboard.
@@marciawalters1733 I sure did ! it is great !
Young people have talent, they just lack exposure and guidance, something we all lost along the way; but thank God for those that didn't forget and passed this kind of thing on.
The groove on Lagniappe...come on as funky as it gets!
This my DUDE!!! Fell in love w/him at the fest on the riverwalk in NOLA!

Um all the songs they played are ska not jazz. That is like saying R&B is still alive listening to a rap song with a bit of R&B in it.
Brian Clendinen
You're just splitting hairs... jazz is jazz. Ska is partially derived from jazz anyway.
This is definitely not ska....
Brian Clendinen And na pe

I love Trombone Shorty and New Orleans

"How's that mouthpiece?"
"Well, you know.."
Classic Shorty.
Dear state of Louisiana; make tiny desk your official tourism material! It'd work for me.
The future of jazz lives in way you play it. Trombone Shorty and his band plays it!

Still making people happy in 2022. Just saw y'all in the parade. I didn't know the trombone could sound so good! Keep posting!
I wish they could do another Tiny desk performance. They are in a totally different place when you compare it to 8 years ago
This is my absolute favorite performer..ive been to several of his shows in several states
Just noticed that the drummer is sitting on a yoga ball.
ThePappy1100 A drummer for the 20teens! Not sure I can see Keith Moon doing it.
+ThePappy1100 yeah, he looks super chill.
+ThePappy1100 Hahahaha
I'll check it out next time I play the video. Awesome! Ha ha ha
subtly practicing his balance lol
I saw Trombone Shorty for the first time at the 2017 Essence Festival....AWESOME!!!!!!
And that was just a little taste of his talent. If he's ever in your town you got to see him and wear something very comfortable because you will dance right out your shoes. NOLA 4 LIFE BABY!
Found this gem about a year ago and listen to it over and over! So virtuose, so energetic so full of love. Cool stuff like this shows me --> there are wonderful people out there! Love
Trombone Shorty is the one, love this guy, he is awesome!!!!! NOLA is always in the house!!!!!
The sound of bary sax year!
The grooves! Those SOLOS!! Incredible!! :D
love these NPR sessions and this one kills it. . . . .jazz is alive and well and it's name is "Shorty". . . . . .sweet music!
Amazing just sent this to my nephew who picked up his first trombone!! 💙

These guys are incredible live! If you get a chance, see them.
I need a little Trombone Shorty Moon Hooch collab in my life.
Nick D'Anneo or trombone shorty too many zooz collab
Here Come the Girls!
@@warrenmcfadden3918 All three :(
What a great idea, drummer on yoga ball, comfortable choice I'm sure!
These guys are great, horns leading the way!
Funkier than week old fish in the sunshine, baby!

I love Trombone Shorty
Hah I love the sheepish smiles they give off when they listen to each other play.
Big Up for NPR and Trombone Shorty & orleans avenue!!!!!
Shout out to my main man Eric Foreman on the sax
Haha! That's what I thought!
I love you for this
hits comment is freakin gold
He is awesome!
he looks a lot like Bill Evans - thought for a moment it was him, but then he should have grown younger after 40 years.... ;o)
Thank you kindly, NPR for hosting these talented musicians and uploading them here so we can access them with ease. This video and the Booker T. Jones video were absolute treats.
They absolutely rip live. This was as close to a slow jam as they do.
I saw him live 5 years ago in Austin, Texas and he's amazing. Definitely the modern Dizzy Gillespie of trombone.
I’d say Louis Armstrong, Dizzy wasn’t known for playing funk or New Orleans 2nd line.
@@JudahGuerra It for sure isn't bebop but I was more referring to his unconventional playing methods.....
Dante Rosenberg still gotta go with Louis just cuz trombone shorty always talks of his love of Pops.
Trombone at Tips in NOLA - they played from 2 AM til 6 AM! So good!
Always great to see Baritone Sax included alongside the Trombone. The sounds just get richer.
I play trombone, but I love how he has his own genre. It's a mix and I love it.
Remember when he was was a little boy playing on New orleans streets with his brother.Both great!
Baritone sax putting in that work 🎉
these guys are the real deal! found this by accident. i'm very pleased that i did. i know what will be in constant rotation for the next few months in my CD player. good shite!
still shredding the horn.....saw this for the first time at 47,391 awesome !!! LIFE IS GOOD
Too good!! Love that new orelans jazzyness)))
Big ups Trombone Shorty!
✍🏿 Trombone Shorty is JB's Fred Wesley so I feel good I like thi's misik fabulous 🎼🎵🎷🎺🎸🎤🎻
I seen em at the Wiltern and open air at Humphreys in San Diego. Just like a soulful Brass poetry in motion.
Damn. I love this whole thing. I especially like the baritone sax on the second song.
Funky - Jazz - Blues and a piece of Rock. Cool!
whoa...and T. Shorty called that 'light duty'. Bravo!!!
Incredible talent. Brings me to NOLA just by listening!
New Orleans funk and jazz groove!!
So excited and glad that these guys are playing in Mobile, AL for the Moonpie Drop this year!
Just bought tickets to a festival with Trombone Shorty!
Great tenor sax solo - fantastic bunch of musicians!
EXCELLENT, ADORABLE, VOUS ETES DES "BONS", les GARS !
This Real Flavor With A Touch Of Funky Stuff !
I love how the drummer is sitting on an aerobic ball.
Tower of power eat your heart out..these guys are amazing!
Music for the soul
loudest concert ever for me...yep, front row at a club, these horns are simply tops
AWESOME!!!!! Young dudes bringing IT!!!! Love it!!! Great job guys. My ears have been blessed!
Uncle Dan ❤❤❤❤❤
This was too good in the library! no more words.
What a timings(after the count) and great improvisation of the trombone. Great !
gorgeous creature - on so many levels
Troy Andrews aka Trombone Shorty. Way to represent NOLA!
How have I not had Trombone Shorty in my life?? Google "O Holy Night Studio 60 (no dialogue)" for a sublime version of the Christmas carol with Shorty on trumpet. This man is genius on any horn he picks up!!
Saw these guys in Cincinatti in October front row. Hands down best concert iv ever been to.
shorty should sing more often. Great voice.
Real music being played by real musicians on real instruments. #100% #keepit100
Thank you Very much.... both Band and Production for bringing us Light! Kudos! Mucho!
hugs from Brazil
Never get tired listening to this flow🥰😍
Not just a pretty face!!!!! The best!!
Since seeong Trombone Shorty at.NSJ in Holland I am a fan.
This performance is amazing.
Barry Sax!! Any Sax! It’s gold
These are some of the BEST New Year's Day tunes~💫
2011 wow, just finding these guys today on a random recommended youtube video called "when you don't have to breath".
I love this sound - to me it has a little background go-go beat to it, as well as some funk and jazz. They are awesome!
Just Found This gem
