Биография

Trumpet sensation Maurice “Mobetta” Brown orbits simultaneously through three worlds: contemporary jazz, blues-rock and cutting-edge hip hop. He’s a mastermind as a trumpeter, composer, arranger, and producer. The Chicago area native won the national Miles Davis Trumpet Competition as a teenager. His critically acclaimed debut, “HIP TO BOP”, recorded in New Orleans, foreshadowed Brown’s unique talent for creating fresh bop-inflected jazz with an urban pulse. Maurice relocated to New York where he established himself as a producer. His second album, THE CYCLE OF LOVE was named by NPR and the Huffington Post as one of the best records of the year. Maurice was then invited to join the newly formed Tedeschi-Trucks Band where he won a Grammy for his horn arrangements on the band's debut album, “Revelator”. He left TTB to reignite his solo career as a musician/producer, setting up a second home in Los Angeles while performing internationally and producing. Maurice’s third album “THE MOOD” mixed his instinctive jazz roots, soulful melodies and vocals. In 2018, Maurice joined Grammy award-winning superstar Anderson .Paak and The Free Nationals on their worldwide tours. The Maurice “Mobetta” Brown sound has become mainstream as he charts his own musical course with constant evolution, crossover fluidity, coupled with an intuitive vision that lights a fire under traditional jazz, adds sonic brass to rock n roll and creatively pushes the production envelope in hip-hop.
