Ray Brown JR - więcej informacji

Ray Brown Jr, wybitny muzyk jazzowy i syn Raya Browna i Elli Fitzgerald.

Od lat 80-tych Ray zaczął aktywnie koncertować, a obecnie podróżuje po całym świecie: "Lubię koncertować, mogłem zobaczyć wielu wspaniałych ludzi, których przywiodła do mnie moja muzyka".

Ray Brown nagrał swój debiutancki album Slow Down for Love, który znalazł się na liście najlepszych jazzowych albumów roku 2001. Ray Brown jest świetnym wokalistą, wielkim artystą i wspaniałym gawędziarzem. Ray mówi: "Moja filozofia w odniesieniu do występów brzmi: po pierwsze, spraw, aby publiczność czuła się lepiej niż wtedy, gdy przybyła, a także mieszanka myśli Franka Sinatry i mojego taty: spraw, aby każdy występ był jak ostatni i nigdy nie rób niczego w połowie".

W jego wykonaniu bluesa można poczuć oddech Elli, a w przerwach można usłyszeć krótkie historie o wielkiej piosenkarce i jej świcie, jak mówią - z pierwszej ręki. Ray niedawno obchodził 70. urodziny. Ale prawdziwy muzyk jazzowy jest jak dojrzałe wino - im starszy, tym cenniejszy. Jak powiedział sam Ray Brown: "Po 70-tce życie dopiero się zaczyna!".

Ray Brown Jr., a prominent jazz musician and son of Ray Brown and Ella Fitzgerald. He was born in New York. Ray considers Roy Eldridge to be his first music teacher, who allowed me to play his horn. The next music teachers were Louis Armstrong and Frank Sinatra, who often visited Ray and Ella's home. Ray Brown Jr. discovered a passion for drumming and singing after moving to California when he was 10 years old. In 1971, he moved to Seattle, studying drums. It was during this time that he began writing his music and songs. Since the 80s, Ray began to tour actively, and at the moment has traveled all over the world: "I like touring, I was able to see many great people who were brought to me by my music." Ray Brown recorded his debut album Slow Down for Love, which was included in the 2001 Top Jazz Albums of the Year. His second album, "Committed from the Heart", was released in 2003. In 2007, he released his third solo album, Stand by Me. And in September 2008, Ray Brown Jr. released the Friends and Family Duet Album, featuring such stars as: Jane Monheit, Melba Moore, James Moody, Maria Mulder, Dr. John, Dionne Warwick, Freda Payne, Sophie B. Hawkins, Paul Williams, Dr. Lonnie Smith, Dave Somerville, Kim Hoyer and Sally Kellerman, David "Fathead" Newman. A bonus track to this album was a recording of Ray with the parents of How High the Moon: Ella Fitzgerald and Brown Jr. on vocals, and Ray Brown Sr. playing bass. In 2018, a new CD, This is Ray Brown Jr., was released. In 2020, Ray began work on an original disc with his own songs. It is practically completed. Ray Brown is a great singer, a great artist, and a terrific storyteller. Ray says: My philosophy with regards to performing is: first, make the audience feel better than they did when they arrived, and also a mixture of Frank Sinatra and my dad's thoughts: make each show like it's the last and never do anything halfway... In his performance of the blues, you can feel Ella's breath, and in the pauses you can hear short stories about the great singer and her entourage, as they say - first-hand. Ray recently celebrated his 70th birthday. But a real jazz musician is like aged wine - the older, the more valuable. As Ray Brown himself said: Аt 70, life is just beginning!
