This week we interviewed Alexis Smith, product specialist for SE Shires and principal trombonist of the Southwest Florida Symphony Orchestra. One of the most recognizable faces in the trombone community, Alexis has fitted countless musicians for their custom Shires instruments. We had the pleasure of asking her about his history and work at the SE Shires company, as well as hearing some various other highlights from her collegiate and professional careers.
