About Charlie Halloran

With nearly nightly gigs in New Orleans, you can't go too long in the Crescent City before coming across trombonist Charlie Halloran. The Tropicales are known for heating up the dance floor with their retro Caribbean melodies and grooves, plus Charlie performs nearly every Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday at the Spotted Cat, Sundays at DBA, and pops up all over town at Jazz Fest, French Quarter Fest,  in traditional jazz ensembles, alongside Anders Osborne, Jon Cleary, Meschiya Lake, Panorama Jazz Band, Shotgun Jazz Band, Palmetto Bug Stompers and just about everyone else. Charlie is one of the most ubiquitous hornmen in the city.
