My name’s Roni.  I’m from Tel Aviv, Israel, home to acclaimed musicians and hot girls.  I went to school at Harvard, lived in Stockholm for a bit, and the rest is pretty much suburban.  Now I live in LA.

Up till about a second ago, From wasn’t much more than my nom de band; I wrote, performed, and produced all the tracks, then directed & creative directed the videos, ran the label, wrote the blog, engineered the site, took the photos, and on it went.  On it goes.

The one thing I couldn’t really do was perform live, at least not in any way that I’d want to go see myself (I’m not into the karaoke or DJ or circus side show models of one person band performances).  Speculations about From live shows aside, From’s now a duo featuring the super talented Paul Best on guitars. [visit Paul on MySpace]

My music was engineered and recorded by the super talented, super fancy Luke Top (Fool’s Gold, Cass Mccombs, The Cave-Ins/Ceramic Isles, Cairo Gang, Foreign Born, Papercuts, and Big Search).  We did “Fight for Your Right” more or less as a band, with Rodrigo recording and engineering the track at his studio.
