Song of the Day: Trombone Shorty – Come Back
New Orleans musical icon's Trombone Shorty released a new single Come Back, from his forthcoming new album Lifted.
Trombone Shorty will release his highly anticipated new studio album Lifted on April 29th on Blue Note Records. For his first album in five years, he harnesses the raw power and exhilarating grooves of his legendary live shows, over ten tracks recorded at his own Buckjump Studio with producer Chris Seefried (Fitz and the Tantrums, Andra Day). Shorty and his bandmates crash through funk, soul and psychedelic rock with transcendent performances, set to bold songwriting that explores grit and determination in hard times. The album features special guests Gary Clark, Jr., Lauren Daigle, and the New Breed Brass Band.
Listen to Trombone Shorty new single Come Back, from his forthcoming new album Lifted:
The Lifted album title and cover photo references the relationship Trombone Shorty had with his mother, Lois Nelson Andrews. In dedicating the album to her memory, he says She passed recently, but she continued to inspire me right up until she transitioned, and that’s why I put a picture of her holding me up at a second line on the cover of this album. She lifted me up my whole life. I think Lifted is the closest we’ve ever gotten to bottling up the live show and putting it on a record. This time around I told everybody to really cut loose, to perform like they were onstage at a festival.
