"Remembering You" pays homage to a very special woman in Guitarist Dee Brown’s life that will always be in his heart

Innervision Records album Remembering You, pays homage to a very special woman in Brown’s life that will always be in his heart. The CD is comprised of emotionally driven tracks dedicated to Shaunia Edwards, an extraordinary woman who shared a treasured season of love before her transition to heaven in 2016. 

Shaunia Edwards, a respected gospel singer, was not only Browns fiancé, she was the co-writer and featured vocalist on “I’m Here For You (I’ll Never Leave You” (Brown’s hit from his 2014 album Brown Sugar, Honey-Coated Love which made Groove Jazz Music’s Top 100 of 2015) and his holiday song “It’s Christmas.” Even from heaven and always in his heart, Shaunia is working her magic.  Brown turned a personal tragedy into a life affirming instrumental chronicle of endurance and hope.

The first single “Hey Baby” hit the Groove Jazz Music Top 30 chart.  The fresh, buoyant, danceable funk jam “Pop the Question” is the second single from Remembering You.  The title track “Remembering You,” is a lush soaring ballad that is the ideal coda to the album.  The co-writers were Valdez Brantley (piano, keyboards, programming, and former music director for Usher, worked with Mary J. Blige, Beyoncé’ and James Brown), soprano saxophonist Dezie McCullers, Jr. and drummer Ron Otis, known for his work with Aretha Franklin, Earl Klugh and Kem.

Their powerful studio camaraderie also infuses the high energy Brantley produced tracks, “Hey Baby, “Pop The Question,” “I Want You Too” (featuring Kern Brantley on bass) and “So Much.”

Renowned urban jazz flutist Althea Rene pairs perfectly with Brown to create a breezy, whimsical stroll through “Our Summer.” Co-writer and keyboardist Bob Baldwin created a hypnotic-duality with Brown on the playful, briskly rolling “I Will.”  Nate Harasim, jazz/R&B artist, composer and producer hit emotional high points on the mystical, soul jazz flavored ballad “Beauty Within.”

“Music is my sanctuary, the thing I love to do, and the concept just made perfect sense, to write songs about different moments in our season together, most love songs are created and inspired by real love and true emotions, and I can attest to that,” says Brown.

“dee Brown’s musical walk down memory lane is a heart-felt expression of where love can lead you. There is no better memory than one that fills a heart with joy, memories and blessings” says Jaijai Jackson of The Jazz Network Worldwide.
