Trumpet sensation Maurice “Mobetta” Brown blends contemporary jazz, blues-rock, and hip-hop, creating a unique sound that marries bebop with urban influences. A Chicago native, Brown won the national Miles Davis Trumpet Competition as a teen before studying under Alvin Batiste in Louisiana. His debut album Hip to Bop foreshadowed his fusion of jazz and urban styles. Post-Hurricane Katrina, Brown moved to New York, recording with icons like Aretha Franklin, Wyclef Jean, and The Roots. His album The Cycle of Love was named one of the year’s best by NPR and Huffington Post. A Grammy winner for his work with Tedeschi-Trucks Band, Brown’s solo career continued with Maurice vs. Mobetta and The Mood. He’s collaborated with Anderson .Paak, Kamasi Washington, and Logic, while his distinctive trumpet sound has become a powerful force across genres. “The Maurice Mobetta sound has become mainstream,” driving constant musical evolution.
