Severin Browne

Former Motown recording artist and long-time California singer/songwriter, Severin Browne enchants audiences with his clear voice, masterful guitar playing, and well-crafted alternative-folk with jazz and rock leanings not often heard in folk music.  Often compared to Van Morrison or his brother Jackson, Browne creates tunes that are soul-searching and toe-tapping all in one swing.  "Browne is a truly unique artist and guitar player. He’s a one man melting pot of folk, jazz, country and rock'n'roll. He's four of the best guitarists I know." - Edward Tree, LA area producer, guitarist and songwriter.
