Wayne Henderson on Wikipedia

Wayne is a soul-jazz/hard bop trombonist and record producer. In 1961, he co-founded the legendary group the Jazz Crusaders, now recognized as one of the pioneers of fusion, mixing elements of jazz, funk, soul, R&B, rock, latin, and gospel in their music and releasing many smash hit recordings along the way. Over the years, Henderson has worked with a host of notable acts including Patti Austin, Bill Withers, Ronnie Laws, Steely Dan, Phillip Ingram, Nathan East, Marvin Gaye, B.B. King, The Jackson Five, Hiroshima, Hugh Masekela, Joni Mitchell, Wilton Felder, George Benson, Diana Ross, Poncho Sanchez, Joe Cocker, Michael Jackson, Roy Ayers, Sergio Mendez and Tina Turner, to mention a few. Of his passion for teaching, Henderson says, "I believe in new talents who will continue to establish trends and set new tones for music, just as it was for Miles, Coltrane, Parker, Blakey, and Ellington." Since the beginning of his affiliation with the California College of Music in 2007, Wayne has been invaluable as our liaison to the music industry, drawing many of our talented faculty members into the fold.
