Maurice Brown is celebrating his solo career with a number of concerts this summer in support of his new album The Mood. Breaking into his own soul substance, the anticipation behind his 2017 album The Mood was astronomical amongst music enthusiasts alike. This jazz juggernaut, affectionately known as “Mobetta,” has been generous with his gift for years. The world is ready to see him release his original material, and various cities across northeast and beyond will be treated to first-hand celebration.

The trumpeter has been on the scene for a number of years now, with an admirable callsheet of acts he’s worked with such as Wyclef Jean, Santana, John Legend, and Santigold. His rise to recognition amongst music makers, listeners, and critics alike comes from mentorship by the iconic Wynton Marsalis. With such wisdom in the works, it was inevitable Brown would be able to compose a variety of creative endeavors for himself as well as others, notably the arrangement for the horns section of the Tedeschi Trucks Band for their Grammy award-winning album Revelator.

Listen to “Stand Up” from The Mood, featuring Talib Kweli:

Maurice Brown’s tour will take him and his band to Bop Stop in Cleveland on June 13, then to Bert’s Marketplace in Detroit for two nights immediately following. Mobetta will return to New York for the Harlem Arts Festival on June 24 with Marc Cary and his Short Circuit, featuring Prodigy of Mobb Deep. To celebrate July 4, Brown will be kicking the week off at the South Street Seaport, then close the celebration at the Blue Note on July 5. To cap out the month, Maurice Brown is throwing down at Martyrs with Talib Kweli, Chris Turner, and J. Ivy in Chicago. Head to his website for more information.
