WHAT THEY'RE KNOWN FOR: Turning tradition into total rock star-dom.
It takes a young one to transform tradition! Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews got his nickname at age four while playing on the Treme streets. Now 27, Shorty is king of the scene, even at his still-young age. He and his band are New Orleans' latest major breakout, not just playing but headlining major festivals worldwide, and giving back to the community with his own music education foundation.
WHERE YOU CAN SEE THEM: Headlining JazzFest, plus many of its annual aftershows and benefit shows
