In case you missed it, Trombone Shorty performed the high-energy funk rocker “I’m Standing Here” from his new album Lifted (Blue Note) on Jimmy Kimmel Live! This performance follows hot on the heels of his appearances on both The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and Good Morning America, as well as his surprise performance at Newport Jazz Festival.
Shorty is currently on his Voodoo Threauxdown tour, a unique event that comprises multiple generations of New Orleans talent on one stage – with performances by Tank and the Bangas, Big Freedia, Cyril Neville the Uptown Ruler, The Soul Rebels, George Porter Jr., and Dumpstaphunk.
The tour continues throughout the fall to promote Lifted, his first album of originals in five years. Recorded at his own Buckjump Studio, the album features special guests Gary Clark Jr., Lauren Daigle, and the New Breed Brass Band.
Other recent high points include his first-ever GRAMMY win for Album of the Year for his work on Jon Batiste’s album, an appearance on the GRAMMY Salute to Paul Simon (airing later this year on CBS), and an in-depth interview with Marc Maron’s WTF podcast. “I can’t remember the last time I heard a power horn band like that,” Maron enthuses.
