About

Conceived in the spirit of multi grammy winning outfit - "The Brecker Bros", the Ali Bros embody the essence of jazz improvisational ideology erupting against a backdrop of powerful urban grooves. Funk, hip-hop, drum'n'bass, R'n'B all colliding with modern jazz textures.

Their uncanny musical relationship enhanced by blood, Brownman and Marcus Ali together form an incredibly synergistic, almost telepathic bond making them one of the most called upon horn teams in the country. They have appeared side by side in countless horn sections in the Canadian professional music scene most nobably as the backbone to the multi-award winning latin-jazz ensemble CRUZAO, Juno nominated reggae artist JASON WILSON, modern house outfit FUNKY HI-LIFE, african masters RADIO NOMAD, merengue specialists DOMINICANADA, latin-house crew TUMBAO INC., Salsa powerhouse MARRON MATIZADO, latin-jazz-urban orchestra CRUZAO GRUPO MONSTRUOSO, jazz legend NORMAN MARSHALL VILLENEUVE, urban songstress SHYANN, and far too many more to list here...
