A Sweeney in New Orleans…

Good morning 👋

How are you doing today?

Growing up playing the trombone in a brass band, I’ve always been a huge fan of jazz and swing music. With this in mind, it’s only natural that New Orleans was a place that I had to visit one day, and three weeks ago, I got to do just that.

We’re going to be taking a look at some of what I got up to there in today’s blog.
