Jerrell Chow

Hey there, I'm Jerrell, born and raised in the sunny island of Singapore. I've been playing music since I was 12, and recently decided to write about it too. I love genres all the way from folk and alternative rock to electronic and anything funky. I hope to be a musician sometime in the future once I think I'm good enough to do anything other than noodle around on the guitar in my bedroom.
