BROWNMAN ELECTRYC TRIO winners of the 2007 Canadian National Jazz Award for "Electric Jazz Group of the Year" 
featuring Brownman - electric trumpet Tyler Emond - 6-string electric bass Colin Kingsmore - drumset -- JazzOnline writes: "Nick "Brownman" Ali's powerful trio captures the essence of the later years in Miles Davis' life, his electric period, without imitation. Brownman's ELECTRYC TRIO is uniquely his own, yet echoes with the sounds of ‘Bitches Brew’ and ‘In a Silent Way’ right down to Miles’ use of electronics while still managing to stay grounded in the sounds of today, clearly paying apt tribute to Brownman's NYC mentor Randy Brecker. Impressive." |
