Wayne is one of the hardest working musicians in Hollywood, and he’s a true living legend in the music industry. You’ve heard his work in some of the biggest Hollywood blockbusters and TV shows, where his soaring trumpet solos have added excitement and drama to countless unforgettable moments.
From “The Incredibles” to “Frozen,” and “La La Land” to “Zootopia,” Wayne’s trumpet has been featured in movies that have shaped modern cinema. His talent has also graced the scores of TV hits like “Family Guy,” “The Simpsons,” and “Animaniacs.” Whether it’s heartfelt moments in “Toy Story” or heart-pounding moments in “Ford vs. Ferrari,” Wayne’s dynamic playing brings these productions to life.
His reputation as one of the most in-demand musicians in the world speaks for itself – he’s worked with John Williams, Quincy Jones, and other musical giants. And now, you get to experience that brilliance firsthand.
We’re thrilled that Wayne is coming to Saskatoon to give us all the chance to experience his incredible talent live!
