Dean Brown, in addition to being the first choice of many jazz superstars such as Marcus Miller, Billy Cobham e Bill Evans, he is also a great teacher. For several years, in fact, he has been teaching at the prestigious MI - Musician Institues of Los Angeles, a school founded by Howard Roberts in the 70s, which has included in the teaching staff artists such as Joe Pass, Pat Martino, Ted Green, Robben Ford, Ron Escrete and many others. He has collaborated with many artists including Marcus Miller, Randy Brecker, Billy Cobham, Bill Evans and Dave Sanborn who refer to him simply as “The Man”. His live performances are as exciting to see as they are to listen to. The enthusiasm in every single note that he reproduces with the guitar are the reward for all those who have been lucky enough to be able to attend one of his concerts.
