George Simon Stanford worked his way to becoming a singer/songwriter by playing trombone. Trombone became Stanford’s “gateway” instrument, leading him to play any instrument in any band he could. Already a star in his native Philadelphia, Stanford is poised to become the next John Mayer. His album comes out later this year on Smash/Mercury Records, and here he takes you behind the scenes at Paramount Studios for an exclusive preview of a mix he is working on titled “Thirty Thousand Feet”.
