RJ Bucaria Guitar, Bass, Drums, Sax
Since the age of 9 months, RJ has been involved in music. His early
years were mainly focused on performance. Having attained competent performance ability on 5 instruments by the age of 7 it
was clear to him and his family that his destiny would lie in the realm of music. By the time he was admitted to the prestigious
Berklee College of Music he had already recorded 3 full length albums, performed Off Broadway, produced 3 benefit concerts,
written/directed/scored 2 original plays, was the chief lighting designer for over 20 stage productions, and had added over
15 instruments to his performance repartee. Using the same passions that caused him to succeed in the performance arena he began to venture into the business
end of the industry. Having achieved early success as the Vice President of Viardo Promotions he felf encouraged to pursue
more and more knowledge across the gambit of the business world. Through his journey, he has had the pleasure of working with
some of the music industry's top names, such as Paul McCartney, Elton John, Russ DeSalvo, Ozzy Osbourne, Linkin Park,
Aerosmith, The Dave Matthews Band, and Paul Vance. RJ says, "I have also had the pleasure of learning from some of the greatest minds at some of the most
successful companies of our day such as Wal-Mart, Southwest Airlines, Harley Davidson, Indian Motorcycle, Microsoft, America
Online, and Sun Microsystems, but the experience that I look forward to the most, is what will happen tomorrow."
