    Artist History
    J.Webb began his musical adventure at aged 9 when he was taught how to play the trumpet. Showing a great deal of talent he was given a position in the local senior brass band. The band played at all kinds of lame festivals and school fates and it was here that J.Webb developed his thirst for playing live shows and being in the public eye. One day the band played at the local park and a group of his school friends busted him. Yes, J.Webb had a big secret, every weekend he got together with a group of fruity old people and played fruity old marching band music. Well, after being beat up and called a poofter J.Webb decided that the trumpet was not cool. J.Webb strapped on a guitar at the age of about sixteen and encourage his friends to learn an instrument so they could form a band. They played at lots of lame festivals and school fates but J.Webb was no longer being beaten up after shows. J.Webb grew into the age of being old enough to drink beer and step onto the pub stage. He did that in bands too maNy and too insignificant to mention. J.Webb got pissed off with lazy, drug fucked and smelly would be rock stars and decided to build a home studio and do it alone.CHOB IS THE RESULT OF THIS
