None Other than Aaron Neville prodded a young Phillip Manuel to make his public debut at age 8. Manuel's first paid gig was three years later.

Growing up in New Orleans, he honed his jazz chops at The Exchequer on Elysian Fields Avenue. In the early 1990s, he hit the road with trumpeter Terence Blanchard and spent a year singing in Portugal.

Among several critically acclaimed albums, Manuel has recorded with trumpeter Nicholas Payton, pianists Ellis Marsalis and Peter Martin percussionist Bill Summers and saxophonist Brice Winston.

On this week’s episode of The EntreMusician Podcast, Phillip joins host Danny Jones to discuss treasured experiences of working with Allen Toussaint, Patti LaBelle and the joys of following his musical heart!
