On the road again headed for #MWRTEC in Kansas City!
Excited to be bringing some awesome horns from Adams Brass, Willson, and Geneva, as well as mouthpieces from Greg Black Mouthpieces and Robert Tucci Mouthpieces!
Antoine Colin of Belgium spent a couple of days working on multiple mouthpiece projects in the shop, and it was our pleasure. We enjoyed hosting him during his first stop in the United States.
Next, Antoine will head to Dallas, Texas, to perform with the Rebel Alliance Jazz Ensemble on a recording project. Thank you again, Antoine! #gregblackmouthpieces

***Artist Spotlight***
“Greg Black crafts mouthpieces that not only feel great, but produce a rich and warm sound that is stable across all registers and dynamics. I have found myself improving as a player because of how comfortable I feel when playing these mouthpieces. I also greatly value the precision of the construction and the personal relationships that make working with a company like Greg Black Mouthpieces so rewarding.” - Sam Woodhead
Please help us in welcoming Dr. Woodhead as the newest member of the Greg Black Artist Family.
Dr. Sam Woodhead serves as the Solo and Principal Trombonist of The U.S. Army Band “Pershing’s Own” Concert Band. Originally from Northport, Maine, he joined “Pershing’s Own” in 2001 as a trombonist with the Ceremonial Band before winning his position with the Concert Band in 2004 and currently holds the rank of Sergeant Major.
He served as chairman of the American Trombone Workshop for 13 years and is the co-founder of the Washington Trombone Ensemble. He has also served on the board of advisors for the International Trombone Association. #gregblackmouthpieces
It was a pleasure having Isrea Butler and Jerome Stover visit the shop today.
They are members of The Gateways Brass Collective, whose mission is to support and connect professional classical musicians of African descent and enlighten and inspire communities through the power of performance.
Greg Black Mouthpieces is a proud supporter of this wonderful quintet.
They have been performing this week at The Gateways Festival in Winston-Salem.
Tonight is their final concert at Centenary United Methodist Church at 7:00 PM.
You will enjoy this beautiful evening of music very much.
Thanks again to Isrea, Jerome, Herb, Courtney, and Larry!

Suonare con Billy Cobham è un onore immenso.
È iniziato quasi per caso, e ancora oggi ci ripenso.
Oltre al musicista straordinario che è (e questo lo sapevo già), ho scoperto una persona di una semplicità e genuinità rare.
I chilometri di strada insieme, i suoi racconti…
Parla con naturalezza — “quella volta con Miles Davis…”, “quella volta con J. J. Johnson…”, “quella volta con Herbie Hancock…” — e tu realizzi che lui c’era davvero.
Musicisti che per me sono sempre stati punti di riferimento, eroi che ho ascoltato, studiato e trascritto per anni — e lui è uno di loro.
Sentire tutto questo raccontato come parte della sua quotidianità, tra amici e compagni di viaggio, mi fa sempre un certo effetto.
E io, nel mio piccolo, sono grato di poter condividere un pezzetto di questo percorso. 🙏
We are heading to Germany this week to exhibit at the Akustika Music Fair in Nurnberg and co-sharing a booth space with our good friends from Adams Brass.
Please stop by to see us if you’re attending! We will be setup with a great selection of mouthpieces at Stand TOK28 from April 24-26.
