Description
The family piano quintet The 5 Browns (Desirae, Deondra, Gregory, Melody, and Ryan) come together in the Mormon Channel studio with host Nancy Hanson to discuss their musical story.

Their shared creative talent and strong love for music has brought them together as a family in a very special way. Hear their strategies for staying in sync with each other while playing and how they infuse their passion for life into their musical performances.
