Stuart Hambley, trombone extraordinaire, is headed to the University of Idaho to get his master’s degree in, you guessed it, trombone.

While he will be less than 5 hours away, and available for “special” shows and recording, he will be missed sorely. His sound has transformed the band in unimaginable ways, elevated all of our playing as a group, and he is just an all around good dude.

Make sure to catch Stu at our Summer shows to let him know how much you love his bone, wish him well and inform him that he is expected to return 🙂

Here is a little video of one of hist first guest performances at the Tractor Tavern in Ballard:
