Darren Conway

Trombone

Darren W. Conway moved to San Diego, CA from Waterbury, CT in 1991. 

He became enamored with the trombone in the 5th grade while still a young

piano student. When he saw the school's music teacher demonstrating the

trombone, he just had to have one. Throughout school, he played feverishly

in Concert, Jazz and Marching bands, as well as the Pit Orchestra.  Darren's

West Coast music career began with the San Diego Bay Bones Trombone

Choir, which paved the way to his sex change operation and his/her

involvement in SKANIC, a San Diego-based ska band. Darren and fellow

SKANIC saxophonist Bruce Zimmerman joined Dead Man's Party in 2001. 

Among Darren's early horn influences are Earth Wind & Fire and the Saturday
Night Live Band. When he isn't playing with his bone, Darren, a chronic
smiler, works in the computer industry.
