**Joshoo** just got off the road playing trumpet in **Peter Gabriel's** band, his OG lineup of instrumentalists he calls legends in their own right. We talk about his start on trumpet in school, the mentorship of his godfather that pointed him toward jazz, and how a trumpet and a flugelhorn actually differ mechanically, not just in tone. We get into what it felt like performing at Madison Square Garden with musicians who, despite their age, stayed as excited about music as anyone starting out. Joshoo also tells the story of how one of his own songs ended up in an Apple commercial after a sync company picked it up, and how he thinks about music as a craft that gives back as much as he puts in.

    It's interesting when you meet older musicians; they can be so jaded, but seeing these legends who are so youthful and excited about music was amazing.
