JEFFERY MILLER MASTERCLASS [9/6/26]

PURCHASE YOUR TICKET HERE!

I’m very excited to share with you that we will have Jeffery Miller joining us for our session on Sunday, September 6th, at 6 pm EST! This will be the first of an ongoing Guest Artist Series I’ll be having here on Patreon.

In this masterclass, Jeffery will discuss New Orleans-style trombone playing, building yourself as an artist, being a touring musician, and we’ll have a live Q&A!

Here’s more about Jeffery: At the age of 19, Mr. Miller stepped onto the stage of the famed Apollo Theatre, and he brought the house down. The now 5-time Grammy-nominated trombonist was proudly introduced by the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra (NOJO), announcing that Jeffery was a recently admitted student on a full scholarship at The Juilliard School. Not his first performance on a great New York stage, when he was just 15, Mr. Miller performed at Carnegie Hall at the celebration of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band’s 50th anniversary.  He also performed with the Preservation Hall Jazz Band for their sold out show at Madison Square Garden, while on tour with Arcade Fire.

The now-28-year-old’s resume already reads like the resume of an old jazz cat.

There are gigs with seasoned veterans including studio sessions with Donald Harrison Jr., Leo Nocentelli (The Meters), Delfeayo Marsalis, and Herlin Riley. He played trombone in the 2014 Grammy Band. Jeffery has performed with Delfeayo Marsalis and the Uptown Jazz Orchestra since he was 14, and he even went on their 2013 New York Tour. He can be heard on the big band’s debut album Make America Great Again! Jeffery Miller has been featured with the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra (2017 Opus Ball) and the Wynton Marsalis Septet (Abu Dhabi Festival 2017). He was also selected to be a part of the 2016 Disneyland Resort All American College Band. He’s played the New Orleans VooDoo Fest, The New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, Satchmo Summerfest, French Quarter Fest, Vail Jazz Festival and Freihofer’s Saratoga Jazz Festival. Mr. Miller has opened for songstress Patti Austin in 2012 at his alma mater, the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA). He’s done tour dates with the Legendary Count Basie Orchestra in 2015, and performed with Christian McBride’s Big Band in Philadelphia.  He was featured on International Jazz Day 2016 at the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, a special event curated by Jon Batiste. He was the official composer and music director for The Public Theater’s Mobile Unit production of Measure for Measure in 2019. Jeffery can lately be seen on tour with Jonas Brothers as their trombonist.
