Getty Herschel Huffine (25,08.1889 - 12,02.1947) was an American music composer, trombonist and tuba player. He was born in Bowling Green Kentucky, the eldest of 4 children
He was employed at an axe handle factory and, when the local town band was organized in 1907, he joined and played the valve trombone. He was a self-taught musician. During the next 5 years, he taught himself tuba as well as the basics of harmony, counterpoint and composition. He spent his mature years as a tuba player in professional bands and circus bands. It is said he worked for C.L. Barnhouse as a music engraver. In 1919 he settled in Binghamton, New York playing in the Endicott-Johnson Shoe Factory band playing the tuba, as well as filling in on trumpet, trombone, and string bass based on information from Endicott-Johnson Co.
The Endicott-Johnson shoe band where he was a a member played his famous march, "Them Basses", at the graveside. Sunlife (Stanshawe) Band close our show this week with this march.
He died in Binghamton on February 12, 1947. The Endicott-Johnson shoe band, of which Getty Huffine was a member at the time of his death, played his famous march, "Them Basses", at the graveside.
