All Music Used by Permission From Theron Brown

Featuring Johnny, in his first Bop Stop appearance in two years, Zaire Darden on Drums, Jordan McBride on Bass and Theron Brown on Piano – and from a December 8th, 2023 performance – it’s the Theron Brown Trio – Featuring Johnny Cochran – Live at the Bop Stop.
