Born and raised in Ypsilanti, Michigan, Jibs Brown was brought up in a musical household, singing and performing from a very young age. In his 20s, he left Ypsilanti for Detroit to perform and write on a bigger stage. He sharpened his harmonica skills and along with his acoustic guitar began to meet and perform with many of Detroit area's most talented musicians. From Justin Timberlake to Johnny Cash, from Weezer to Bruce Springstein, Brown has acquired a vast catalog of music, and his originals are simple, honest and soulful.
