Born 1986 in the Chinese year of the Fire Tiger. A charming and attractive child, he grew up around music, travelling Europe with his performing parents. When the family settled for a period on the north coast of N.S.W in Australia, the teenage Rohan struck up his first band, The Epistolary, aged 15. It was his turn to entertain and wow his peers. With his prolific songwriting and explosive creative output he quickly outgrew the teen scene and was soon playing regularly and working with the cream of the Australian underground and alternative artists like cowboy legend and puppet master Jimmy Willing, Dan Rumour (Cruel Sea), Christa Hughes (Machine Gun Felatio), The Remains' Mick Daley, and David Virgin of course. Playing hard hillbilly punk one night with The Hickups, playing cool psychadelic rock with Dan Rumour and David Virgin the next, supporting Lloyd Cole, Billy Bragg, sharing conversation and pizza while backstage with (Cat Power's) Chan Marshal, absobing the rock n roll lifestyle and buzz, while honing his craft. He helped create the legendary "No Fun" studio where he recorded and produced many of the north coast's best artists along with his own records. Now truly independant and autonomous he contains the skills, experiences and utilities to match his creative expression, his musical and lyrical storm.
To date Rohan has made three studio albums and has many colaborative and production credits.
