Starred Review"WHERE Y' AT? This companion to the award-winning Trombone Shorty (2015) offers another captivating look at the childhood of the celebrated contemporary jazz musician. With great fondness, Andrews (with co-author Bill Taylor) shows how the music and people of his beloved Treme´ neighborhood shaped him as a bandleader. A brass band playing "When the Saints Go Marching In" kicks off the production, which is just as engaging and beautifully produced as the award-winning recording of the first title. Shorty loves playing tunes with the other boys making up the 5 0'Clock Band." BOOKLIST

"....Jerry Terheyden's narration alternates between the slow pace of a turtle and the bounce of an exuberant spider.... Balloons filing with air and underwater bubbles are among the fitting sound effects." -AudioFile Magazine
