In this episode of the JAZZIZ Podcast, GRAMMY-winning guitarist Norman Brown joins us to discuss his latest album, It Hits Different. Brown shares insights into the eleven original compositions that blend jazz, funk, blues, R&B, and more. Inspired by the album’s title, we ask Brown what sets this record apart from his previous work throughout his stellar career. Additionally, we explore the contributions of those who helped bring this project to life and delve into Brown’s personal journey, including the positive influence of meditation and Tai Chi on his life.
