Paul Brown

Paul Brown’s talent as producer/engineer have earned him two Grammy Awards and an impressive string of more than 40 number one hits on Radio & Records’ smooth jazz chart. In an illustrious career spanning over two decades, Brown has worked on projects for such influential artists as George Benson, Al Jarreau, Kirk Whalum, Patti Austin, Norman Brown, Luther Vandross, Larry Carlton, Euge Groove, Boney James, Rick Braun, and Peter White, among many others.

Brown was born and raised in Los Angeles. He started playing drums at age five and picked up his first guitar two years later. After studying music and math at the University of Oregon, Brown returned to L.A. and began his rise to fame producing some of the biggest hits in contemporary jazz. In insider circles, Brown is known as “the Babyface of Smooth Jazz,” and rightly so. In 2004, he finally stepped out from behind the producer’s chair and released his debut CD “Up Front” which was followed up by four more albums. His latest CD is called “Love You Found Me” (2010).
