the new HIT RADIO SINGLE FEATURING RICK BRAUN - out now

Music is all about conversation. Whether it’s onstage or off, there’s no one better at that than Rick Braun! The pairing of sax and trumpet is timeless. From Miles and Coltrane to the Brecker Brothers, it defines great jazz and funk. Rick and Andrew have paired their horns for years in concert and in the studio. They share an affinity for both contemporary and traditional jazz. It all comes together with Bring It On!
