"Ali & Wilson together evoke images of what
Miles & Marley might have sounded like together"
- BlogTO

Multi-award-winning jazz trumpet player BROWNMAN ALI, just back in Toronto after tour dates with iconic rapper Jay-z and best known for his creatively bombastic & energized playing style -- strips down to a bare bones duet configuration for the Musideum's "+1" series. Appearing this Sunday with internationally acclaimed reggae artist JASON WILSON, twice nominated for Junos for "reggae recording of the year", and now touring the globe promoting his latest 2-CD release "The Peace Makers Chauffeur", which Matt Galloway of CBC Radio Canada called "... brilliant, one of the best releases of the year". Both artists represent the cutting edge of expression in both their respective fields of jazz and reggae, so expect to hear 2-man inventive arrangements of reggae-jazz mashups all night long. Brown & Jason have been collaborating for close to 15 years now, Brown appearing on all of Jason's award-winning records to date; and Jason often appearing as a surprise guest vocalist with the Browman Akoustic Trio. This evening's musical journey will take you all the way from Bob Marley to Miles Davis and drop you somewhere in the middle spurred by Jason's mesmerizing voice & Brownman's enchanting horn. You won't want to miss this one!...
