Well, first Grace Potter splits from the Nocturnals. And now she just up and joins a symphony orchestra.
Oh wait…
Great appointment! Because her tone and sound concept, she is one of very few trombonists who has made my ears perk up. I predict a glorious future for her!
Bravissimo! Congratulations maestra!

My trombone news cup runneth over.
Congrats Gracie!
