Hi s nickname came from the fact that he first appeared onstage at the age of 4 and led his own band at the age of 6. But he’s from New Orleans and i n New Orleans\, music seeps into your bones in the crib. He grew up surrou nded by music and musicians\, including in his own family\, so he could ha rdly help it.\nHe found his footing in New Orleans’ unique second lines and Mardi Gras parades (which he still takes part in) but he has since spr ead his sound all over the world\, through extensive touring and more than a dozen albums. Like most New Orleans music\, its redolent of the city’ s cultural gumbo\, which is influenced by Caribbean\, Africa\, European an d Native American cultures: it blended R&\;B\, funk\, rock\, hip-hop\, blues and several varieties of jazz.\nHe and his band Orleans Avenue are c urrently on their Let’s Go Get “Em tour\, which will bring a taste of New Orleans to Cain Park in Cleveland Heights. Their opening act is Tank & amp\; the Bangas\, also a multi-genre band from New Orleans band that mixe s neo-soul\, funk and hip hop with spoken word\, provided by vocalist/slam poet Tarriona “Tank” Ball.\nGo here for tickets.\ntrombone-shorty-orl eans-avenue-with-special-guest-tank-the-bangas/cain-park-evans-amphitheate r/\n[mappress mapid="1105"] ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://coolcleveland.com/wp-content/uploads/202 6/06/TromboneShorty.jpg CATEGORIES:Drinks,college,Teen,Kids,Eats,Performance,----WRITERS----,Outdo ors,Music: Popular,Anastasia Pantsios,Preview,RSS,Music: Jazz / Blues END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/New_York X-LIC-LOCATION:America/New_York BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20260308T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 TZNAME:EDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
