About The French Wedding Trumpeter

Phil Hanson

Phil has been playing trumpet and cornet for over 4 decades and can trace his musical training back to the classical and orchestral world, the highlight of which was his time in the 90’s as a playing member of world’s number 1 brass band, the Brighouse & Rastrick. Phil has performed internationally in concert halls across Europe, North America and Canada and is an experienced recording artist, having appeared on multiple albums as both an individual artist and as a session musician. Phil is as comfortable playing classical trumpet fanfares as he is improvising jazz licks or playing a 12 bar blues. A keen lover of chillout music, Phil mixes his unique style of playing with modern beats and sounds to create a pleasing and relaxing background sonic palette.
