Bill Ortiz - Building With Brass


Not everyone reads through album liner notes, but if you’re one of the people that do, you already know that the sounds of Bill Ortiz’s trumpet have graced some of your favorite records. He works and tours with the legendary Carlos Santana. He’s recorded with Tony Toni Tone, TLC, and Destiny’s Child, just to name a few, and his latest album, Highest Wish, features appearances from underground hip-hop heavyweights Casual, The Grouch, and Zumbi from Zion I.

Ortiz also told some highly entertaining tour stories, which included revealing the R&B group you should never challenge to a snowball fight.
