Max Brown is a Chicago-based trombonist, composer, and arranger whose sound blends classic jazz tradition with adventurous improvisation. A graduate of Indiana University’s Jacobs School of Music and Butler University, he studied under Wayne Wallace, John Raymond, and Tom Walsh. Before arriving in Chicago, Brown was an active voice in the Madison and Milwaukee scenes, where he continues to perform. His group, the Max Brown Quartet, showcases original compositions and imaginative takes on straight-ahead jazz.
