Robert Edwards is one the bright new voices in jazz trombone today. Educated at The Juilliard School, Edwards' move to New York has been highlighted by performances with Jimmy Heath, Claudio Roditi, Roy Hargrove, Christian McBride, and the Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band. Ever striving for greater musical heights, his vigilance to be a leader in the music is realized by his debut on D Clef Records, "Sound Business". Robert Edwards plays Michael Rath trombones exclusively.
"Robert Edwards is one of the future giants of the jazz trombone." - John Lee, legendary bassist and director of the Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band
"Robert Edwards is a wonderful trombonist with a smooth flow of ideas and great intonation. His harmonic understanding is exemplary and his writing is strong both in the tradition and in the modern/contemporary sense. I look for a lot more from Robert in the future." - Steve Turre, Trombone Icon
