Hi there! I'm AJ Marks, an American Guinness World Record-setting musician, songwriter, and podcast host/producer currently living in England. Since joining the music industry at age 10, I've performed 150+ shows around the world, opened for bands such as Paramore and Fall Out Boy, moved halfway across the world, graduated from Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts with a degree in songwriting, released 15 songs, and started my very own podcast as both a host and producer. As a bisexual, mixed-race immigrant, I have a lot of real life experiences with being part of a wide variety of cultures. I'm the most optimistic person I know, and ambition is everything to me. I'm also a music and pop culture enthusiast, moderating one of the largest online pop music discussion platforms in the world. I am proficient in creating podcasts, from the conceptualizing stage to producing and hosting, as well as editing and graphic design.
