Derek has been performing on guitar since the early 1980’s, and brings a wealth of musical knowledge to the duo.  He studied jazz performance with Dr. Ira Wiggins at North Carolina Central University, and performed for jazz legends during his time there.  He has also embraced traditional country music on guitar, learning the heritage of this music with the late Buddy Holt, an American music treasure. In addition, Derek has also performed in pit orchestras for musical theatre.  He performs, and records all of the additional instruments for their live, full band sound.  Their varied amount of work in music allows The Brown Brothers to tap into numerous experiences, and ensure a high quality show for their audience.
