Brownman’s Halloween Thriller
JUNO & GRAMMY nominated jazz/hip-hop trumpet playing iconoclast BROWNMAN ALI (Jay-z, Missy Elliot, Kanye West, Guru’s Jazzmatazz) will once again lead an all-star quartet through his popular annual HALLOWEEN THRILLER concert, this year travelling up from Brooklyn, NY to various venues (and schools) across Southern Ontario. The much lauded BROWNMAN ELECTRYC TRIO + 1 will perform the entire Michael Jackson “Thriller” recording, interpreted and re-worked in the Miles Davis-esque fashion this multiple National Jazz Award winning improviser has become known for. In addition to the quartet performing Thriller from top to bottom, other MJ classics will be featured through the night for this unique Halloween Series jazz party. Costumes and Thriller video dance moves encouraged!
This show features as it’s “+1″acclaimed keyboardist NICK MACLEAN, a rising star in Toronto’s jazz community, signee to Brownman’s Browntasauras Records label & winner of 10 Global Music Awards, standing alongside 2 of Toronto’s most in demand musicians: MATT GRUEBNER on bass (from New Zealand, now in Canada), and ADAM MANSFIELD on drums (a 22-year old drumset phenom), all under the direction of 2x National Jazz Award winning modern jazz trumpet iconoclast BROWNMAN ALI.
