Chicago, IL, USA

I'm a Chicago-area music teacher by day, singer/songwriter and home-studio musician by night. I play in an acoustic cover band called "The Ponyboys," my label is "Museable Smoke Productions," and my solo artist name is "BOGOH," (pronounced bah-go). Poetic lyrics, tuneful melodies, obscure key changes, and mixed-meter grooves are the hallmarks of my style. I'm influenced by many different artists and genres. For inspiration, I often listen to the music of Rush, the Beatles, Muse, and Harry Chapin, and Billy Joel. BOGOH's debut EP, "Wutdoyasay," is about experiencing loss and learning to appreciate simple joys that present themselves. The songs were written in the stolen moments of everyday life, usually late at night after the family was asleep and the house was quiet. My second release, "The Ponyboys - Volume One," is a 10-song acoustic cover album that I recorded with my best friends. Looking forward to connecting!
