Delmar Brown -musician, composer, performer, visionary and student of the World. The 'Delmar Brown World Pop Experience' brings together exciting musical elements from all over the planet and fuses them together to form a unique blend of music which he himself has termed 'World Pop'.

This vision of musical unification from many different cultural sources and American pop music comes from a person whose life has allways been surrounded by music from a variety of cultures. As a young man, Delmar Brown was a shining star in Bloomington, Illinois where he was active in church as a pianist, singer and organist. Delmar admired the great jazz rnusicians of his youth, citing Jimmy Smith, Herbie Hancock, and Oscar Peterson aniong his earliest influences. Gospel greats like Mahalia Jackson, James Cleveland and C.L. Franklin were a large part of his earliest vocal influences. After studying at Berklee College of Music, the training ground of some of the finest jazz musicians today, Delmar went on to play and compose for some of the most influential musicians in the global industry including Gil Evans, Miles Davis, Quincy Jones, Jaco Pastroius and many others. Delmar's travel experiences and love of the music of the world brought him in contact with innovative pop musicians who included elements of world music in their own music. Throughout the years Delmar has collaborated with such notable figures as Sting, Youssou N'Dour, and Peter Gabriel.
