THE SLOAN

About Me

I was born on July 23, 1972 in Hollywood, California into a musical family. As such, my musical career got off to an early start. I was already playing the drums by the time I was 2. When I was 6, I performed at the Wilshire Ebel Theater with my father and by age 10, I (along with my father, uncle, & brother) recorded my first DBL cover album which consisting of authentic Armenian folk songs and was titled DANTZ FEVER. In 1995 I met Greg Hosharian who was working on producing rap songs with my brother. At that time I found out that Greg Hosharian and I shared the same interests and we became instant friends. In 2000, Greg Hosharian and I played together in a progressive rock band called Vendetta consisting of Greg Hosharian, Greg Miller and myself. Later we formed another band called Echo Prism consisting of Greg Hosharian, Phillip Trujeque and myself. Now I also play full time in the Hosharian Brothers Armenian band that consists of all the GREATEST HITS band members. My musical inflences are my father John Bilezikjian, Greg Hosharian, Greg Miller, & Phillip Trujuque. Some of the bands that have influenced me are Rush, Dream Theater, Yani, Motley Crue, Harout Pampokjan, Van Halen, & Metalica, to name a few.Besides playing music, I also work as an inside sales representative selling nuts & bolts in Sante Fe Springs, CA. I have a wonderful wife and three beautiful children. When I am off the work clock, I love spending my time with my family and raising my children. Myspace Layouts
