Coast-hopping, Jazz-drumming, Chris Brown is back in town!
Brown has gained a stellar reputation as one of the bright new talents on the scene, working with a who's who of Jazz artist.
This quartet is so amazing on so many different levels...go see 'em whilst they still exist in PDX. I really think this one could go a long way in the Jazz world!
-Bob Stark. Portland, OR.
Producer/Sound Engineer Kung Fu Bakery Studio.
He is a uniquely talented performer and educator, and a man in whom I trust and for whom I hold great admiration.
-Conrad Herwig. New York, NY.
Director of Jazz Studies, Rutgers University, NJ, and 3x Grammy Nominated artist.
I used him almost exclusively in my band when he used to reside in the NYC area, as he always brought so much knowledge and artistry to the music. And combined with his multi-instrumentalist abilities, Chris Brown is a unique talent that's not often found.

This will be the first time that this group will have both headlined at a Jazz festival and have performed this far from our home base of Portland, OR. So needless to say we're quite excited to see the reaction of the audience once they see what we have in store for them. So if you happen to be in the Ellensburg area of WA then we'd love to see you at this years JIV Festival.
