Ponch Satrio

Born in Jambi, Indonesia. Ponch started playing guitar autodidactic when he was 9 years old. He always took the opportunity to play his brother’s guitar in that time. He had an impressive experience at his 5. He saw his father played drum in the band called Sand Stone, while eating chocolate and waiting for his father rehearsal. The band played the Beatles songs! Later, he listened to Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin on his father’s tape recorder. After his freaky brother Yoyok turned the music on out loud by work of Judas Priest, on this very time he realized the essence of Heavenly Metal songs..yeaah..and also a band called RUSH that lay with your imagination of superb intellectual music has ever written. However, the most important thing that makes him play guitar is because of a movie, entitled “Back to the Future”, starring Michael J. Fox. The coolest stunt from the scene is when this young Marty puts on his guitar and starts to rumble the speaker. BANG! That giant Amplifier was overloaded and blew up by such an Awesome Power of Rock n Roll super mega distortion.. yep.. that’s real attitude pal!… and then Ponch went home by his strange bike and start looking for his brother acoustic guitar, that painted sort of Van Halen ..lol.
