B2P 008 - Gilkes and Keberle presented by Hip-BoneMusic

I have been a big fan of Marshall Gilkes and Ryan Keberle since I first heard them about 10 years ago. It’s been a delight to see them carve out immensely successful careers in this ever changing profession of music. I consider them to be two of the most innovative players of any generation. While I love nothing more than to sit down with a legend of the brass world, I also find it enlightening and inspiring to hear the ideas and thoughts that future legends have. I hope you enjoy hearing Marshall and Ryan’s fresh and unique perspectives.

p.s. In the next couple months, Hip-BoneU will be releasing two exceptional lessons given by Marshall and Ryan. Incredible stuff that is not to be missed!
