Andre Hayward Quintet

Join us for a live taping and listening-room concert for the Andre Hayward Quintet! Andre Hayward - Trombone Michael Malone - Saxophones Ben Irom - Piano Aaron Allen - Double Bass Joshua Berry - Drums Andre Hayward is a trombone player based in Austin, Texas. His sound and clarity are reminiscent of the late J.J. Johnson. Born in Houston in 1973, Hayward’s first exposure to music was through his parents, Melvin and Barbara Hayward. He began playing trombone and tuba at the age of 11. He attended HSPVA, and continued to hone his skills with Houston’s legendary educator Conrad O. Johnson. He has recorded or performed with Betty Carter, Roy Hargrove, Joe Williams, John Lewis, Kirk Whalum, The Duke Ellington Orchestra and many others. Hayward toured as lead trombonist with The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra and the Duke Ellington Orchestra. Please Note: This is a live-taping, so we'll be enforcing a whisper-policy!
