A teacher once told me, “Your eyes and ears are inputs, your mouth is output and you can’t listen and talk at the same time.” I have a great thirst for learning and have learned much in this life.
Jammed and recorded with Bob Dylan. Had dinner with Johnny Cash & June Carter during my recording days with Carlene Carter and John Prine. Working as drummer and sound engineer for Heartbreaker bassist Howie Epstein were days I will never forget.
Am proud to have been in the first and only Thai-Western band called “Soy Cowboy”. Along with producing and engineering, this was my first experience being a front man.
With the exception of Soy Cowboy, I’ve toured as a drummer with various rock, blues and funk bands. Engineered and Produced many bands and solo artists. And like many in the music business, advanced to Post Production work. That’s when I found Anime.
In 1993 connected with Les Claypool and Zro Limit Productions at Magnitude 8 Post to record ADR for Japanese Animation called “Anime”. It was here I found myself Engineering, Directing and Voice Acting many Anime & Video Games. One of those video games was Silent Hill. I wrote lyrics and sang on a couple songs for Silent Hill.
I consider myself an Recording Artist. I record everything!
Be it a large project or small, I’m always open to new things and putting my all and best into everything I do.
Ears, Eyes and Voice for hire with a creative mind and loving spirit. That’s me in a place called Shadow Box Studio.
