"Awards are nice, naturally, but to dig what Brownman is doing, you've got to see him live. I had a chance to do just that over the summer when Brownman fronted his killer trio ... I came away with a blown mind. This guy's got chops galore, soul to match, and a sense of phrasing that recalls many of the greats, but suggests itself to be his own."
