Bio: I've written and recorded an asshole load music over the years, both by myself and in collaboration with others. I've been in bands such as Cheap Blue Horn (which was also a public access TV show for a while), Pardon Our Dust, and have recorded with hip hop ariste extraordaire, Ja$on Bane. I'm currently working on a new project/band by the name The Bendable Professionals.
Alone, I'm Chonk. I record song to entertain myself, my friends, and whoever else wants to listen. I love experimenting with new instruments, songwriting techniques, noises/harmonies, and recording methods. I also play live sometimes, and enjoy it quite a great amount of deal.
