When you need a heavyweight trumpet player, who do you call? My guest for this special two-part episode, Serafin Aguilar

Serafin is a bull of a player. That’s why he’s called El Toro. His sound is big, his chops are strong and when he cuts loose you best get out of his way. But Serafin is also a very thoughtful and insightful man who is on a mission to be a positive force in the world. Serafin has played with the legendary Pancho Sanchez, the Zac Brown Band, and was able to fulfill his childhood dream of touring with trumpet giant Maynard Ferguson and forming a special relationship with The Boss.

In Part 1 of this hang, Serafin goes deep into paying attention to detail, taking care of business during the pandemic, why metal always wins, why trumpet playing is not for the faint of heart, working intuitively, learning how to problem-solve, the science of playing high notes, troubleshooting range problems, powerlifting, the carnivore diet,  and so much more.

So pour yourself a big glass, pull up a chair, and let the hang begin!
