Offbeat has been a huge supporter of New Orleans’ own Trumpet Mafia since the beginning. Check out Offbeat’s coverage of Trumpet Mafia at the 2015 Jazz Fest and the impressive trumpet ensemble in the WWOZ Jazz Tent!
In addition to the immense line-up of trumpet player regulars, the Trumpet Mafia 2015 Jazz Fest line-up featured an array of other local talent and nationally touring professional trumpet players including special guests Leroy Jones, Irvin Mayfield and Farnell Newton, mini trumpeter Deuce Brown, and the legendary Bill Summers on percussion.
