About The Tim Chokan Quartet
I was born and raised in Sacramento, CA. When I was thirteen years old, most public schools still had a music department that provided musical instruments for their students. I wanted to play the drums or the trombone. The teacher informed me that they had only one instrument left available for that semester. The Trumpet. So the Trumpet actually found me. I started playing the Trumpet in the seventh grade, and have loved everything about it ever since. I have performed in the high school marching band and the high school stage band. I continued to perform in college stage bands, and in 1984 I moved to Los Angeles. I continued to practice and took lessons for a few years, did some acting, and began my career in the entertainment industry. I started going to open mike nights, and eventually formed my own quartet, "The Rear View Mirror Quartet", which performed jazz standards in and around Los Angeles for about three years. I always wanted to make my own music so I got access to a computer and learned music software to record my music. In 2007, I released my first CD. I got a weeknight gig at BB Kings at Universal Citywalk Hollywood, CA that year, where I was introduced to the music coordinator for Universal Citywalk Artist Group, and called me in to audition for them. I played one song and was hired on the spot. They didn't have any trumpet players and thought I would be a great addition to their group of artists. The cool part was, they wanted me to perform all of my original music. I have since created a total of six CDs, and performed 300+ shows at Universal Citywalk over the last nine years, playing in front of hundreds of thousands of people from around the world, where I would sell my CDS and promote my website and online music store to a global audience. I am proud to be a part of Citywalk and will be for many years to come. I will continue to make music for many years to come. I have temporarily moved back to Sacramento to help out my aging parents.
