Artist description T.J. Brock is a quartet in one person, singing, playing melodies and chords with his right hand, bass and chords with the left and drums with his feet. In the studio he is cheating like everyone else, recording each part separately, but in live performances he does all these things simultaneously.

Artist History Regarding T.J. Brock’s background, he is among the more unlikely characters to emerge in the music world. Starting out as a drummer at the age of ten, he gradually expanded his activities to writing lyrics and then finally wound up writing songs. In today’s image-ridden and scandal-infested music industry, T.J. Brock does definitely not live up to the requirements expected from aspiring artists. He cannot remember having any unhappy childhood. Wait a minute, his parents divorced when he was about twelve. That is at least something that can make an ambitious and truth-seeking music journalist happy. The closest T.J. Brock has been to using drugs is when he has gotten local anaesthetics at the dentist’s. Regrettably, T.J. Brock has never had the clap or any other VD. This makes it difficult to find topics to discuss when he hangs with representatives of the highly sophisticated and intelligent lot called musicians. Paying alimony is also something he does not share with his colleagues. Being a baldie and a non-smoker, T.J. Brock will probably be absent from the front (and even back) pages of hip and trendy music mags. T.J. Brock’s criminal background is limited to bringing home a couple of hammer heads he found at a construction site when he was a kid. There has also been a couple of parking tickets. Oh, and once he left a Chinese restaurant without paying the bill (because he forgot), but was immediately confronted with his hideous deed by a vigilant waitress. T.J. Brock has been known to throw TV’s and furniture from the second floor, however not through hotel windows but through apartment windows and into rubbish skips. This was when he worked for a renovation company. His drinking habit is a real sad story. Only once in a while does he enjoy a glass or two of red wine, causing great frustration among his fellow musicians. People have tried to make him drink beer instead, but without any success. Two of T.J. Brock’s severe addictions are coca cola and chocolate, The repercussions of these grave excesses are among others a terribly untrendy paunch and occasional burps pestering his immediate surroundings. Sometimes he makes music.
