Born:

Trombonist and composer Rick Faulkner has made a reputation for himself on the New York City jazz and world music scenes for his rich, expansive sound, no-holds-barred playing style and infectious, soulful compositions.   His musical experience ranges from traditional jazz and bebop to salsa, Latin jazz, Haitian compas, Brazilian choro, klezmer, bluegrass, and more.  As a freelancer, he has performed and/or recorded with such artists as Max Roach, David Murray, Wallace Roney, Pucho and his Latin Soul Brothers, Guided by Voices, and Grammy Award-nominee Juan Carlos Formell.  From 1992-1998 he was a member of the legendary ska band the Toasters, touring internationally and recording three CDs.  He co-founded the critically-acclaimed New York Ska Jazz Ensemble (featured in Down Beat and JAZZIZ magazines) and appeared with them at the Montreal Jazz Festival and the North Sea Jazz Festival, among others.
