Bobby Brown is someone who strives to inspire, teach and create joy with everything he does. Part of his work as a manager or self-described “artist representative” encompasses that role of mentorship and guidance to the highest degree, shaping and growing the talents of 2 notable acts: Karl Benjamin, and Brighton’s Frankie Stew & Harvey Gunn.

Have a listen, and remember to always Trust Your Journey x
