He also shares his expertise with a wide audience through his popular Instagram and YouTube channel, Low Brass U, which has garnered millions of views and inspired countless musicians.

Marley expressed appreciation for his collaboration with the KHS, stating, "Over the last year, I have thoroughly enjoyed playing XO and Jupiter low brass instruments for my professional performances, teaching, and recording sessions.
