Guru & Brownman
- a brief history -

2006 ended for Brownman with the explosive "Jazz By Genre" presentation of legendary rapper of Jazzmatazz and Gangstarr fame - GURU, held in Toronto's revered Mod Club.  This could have been just another 'backing band for out-of-town act' session for the often called Trinidadian trumpeter, but the chemistry between Brown and Guru was evident even back then on their first meeting.  During that show Guru would push him out of his regular horn position to the front of the stage to solo while the hip-hop legend held a mic in front of his horn's bell.  This single performance would lead to a phone call from Guru's producer Solar a month later asking Brown if he was available to make an appearance on the upcoming 2007 release of 'Jazzmatazz Vol. 4', replacing the luminious Donald Byrd as the featured trumpet soloist.  Brown, accepting immediately, would write a special horn arrangement of "Universal Struggle" and solo throughout the tune.  In early Feb '07 he was again contacted by Solar, impressed by Brown's work on the track, to ask him to tour America for the release of JAZZMATAZZ VOL. 4. 

Since then Brownman is deeply honoured to have been touring the world as the featured soloist with GURU's JAZZMATAZZ as they bring their unique breed of jazz-hip-hop through The United States, Europe, Japan & South America.  The world tour continues...
