People, I'm a musician. I live in New York City. I love it here. I was born and grew up in Japan; in fact, the little known fact is that I've spent most of my life there, and not here. But I love it here nonetheless.
I started piano lessons when I was 5, hated it, but stuck to it for a long long long time thereafter. I switched to bass at 17, and have been rockin' the 4-stringer since then. I've had my share of musical stories. I was the bassist for Brit-pop band Passenger and have since had the opportunity to play with great bands, at great places, all around the world. Artists I've played with in the past and recorded with include Alpha Rev, Tim McGregor (Jem), Matt Beck (Matchbox 20, Rod Stewart), Aaron Johnston (Brazilian Girls), Midnight, and some other notable mentions.
Today, I am the bassist playing in different acts where I can; all on top of working on my first semi-eletctronic record entitled Safety in Numbers. The bands I play with are Joseph King . The bands are made up of great people, talented people, and great friends. I also play with schoolgirl-disguised rock goddess Maggie Kim . One really could not ask for more.
Anyways, that's all I have for now. PLEASE CHECK THE SHOW SCHEDULE BELOW! If anyone is interested, feel free to drop a note to say hello.
Godspeed,
Sanjay
