Biography

Derek Tobias is originally from Santa Cruz, Calif. When he was only 5 years old it was his dream to grow up and be the siren on an ambulance, but after coming to the crushing realization that it was a machine at age 8 he decided to focus his efforts on more creative endeavors. Starting off his music journalism career as an intern at the once proud Skratch Magazine he quickly gained a passion for covering live music (and quickly realized he always needs to get a TM contact number before going to cover a show). Music and art fuels his soul and he can often be found around California with his vintage tan camera bag around his shoulder, or rocking out in the pit with a whisky in his hand.
