ME FIRST ON STRIKE.TV, A NEW KIND OF INDEPENDENCE DAY
Peter Hyoguchi, co-founder of Strike.TV, hired me to score his ME FIRST episodic web series (think Arrested Development meets Supernanny) set to stream on the new entertainment destination this summer. Peter was so excited about my music he introduced me to trailer company Happy Hour so they could license music for the Strike.TV promo reel. The promo trailer is online now with several tracks of my music, so go check it out at Strike.TV and sign up for the newsletter. George, John, Tom and Ben would be proud!
