For over half a century, Fred Wesley has been blowing the hurricane of eternal, bubbling, unsweetened funk. An icon of the select funk family, Fred Wesley has collaborated with James Brown, Maceo Parker, George Clinton and Bootsy Collins. This jazz-inspired trombonist, with accents of soul music and gospel, is currently making his trombone roar with a new version of JB’s. Simply breathtaking, he invents a trombone phrasing that is instantly recognisable, inspired by jazz, with accents of soul music and bewitching gospel. A true legend, he remains a role model for the new generation of R’n’B artists. Tickets
