Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is
either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of
himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall
say to his assailant, "If i die, you are forgiven, If I Live, I WILL KILL YOU!" Such is the Rule of Honor.
Brandon Khoo plays drums for progressive metal band APHELION, extreme metal band WAR ENSEMBLE and hard rock band THE UNXPECTED featuring Shirlyn Tan in Singapore.
He discovered his passion for rhythm and drums at a young age. At 11 years old, he began taking drum lessons in a music school. For the next 2 years, he received training on the fundamentals of drumming from teachers, after which he embarked on the life-long journey of learning the finer aspects of drumming on his own through magazines, books, videos and as well as learning from other drummers. After 18 years experience and hard work, he has attained recognition as an accomplished metal, hard rock and pop drummer. He is especially well known for his hard hitting style, fancy double-bass work and flamboyant showmanship.
Currently, he plays regularly at a club called Wala-Wala (Thu & Sat) and Balaclava (Wed & Fri) with THE UNXPECTED BAND. He has had experience playing around the club circuit as well as sessioning for a number of notable bands and international artistes such as Emil Chau (Zhou Huajian), Richie Jen (Ren Xianqi), Leon Lai, Shirlyn Tan, Wendi Koh, Melt9snow, Heaven & Earth and one of America’s top blues guitarists, Eugene Hideaway Bridges to name a few. Lately, some of his musical activities includes appearing in a Jaycee Chan music video.
Besides playing, he is also always willing to impart his knowledge to anyone who wants to learn and is willing to work hard. Thus, he is also a private Drum Instructor. for enquiries please e-mail him at brandon(AT)brandonkhoo(DOT)com
