[edit] Biography

From a very young age Bates would read the liner notes to learn as much as he could about music. His mother listened to a variety of music so Bates was exposed to a variety of different styles of music; from Jesus Christ Superstar and Hair to Joni Mitchell and the Beatles.[1]

When he was older, he moved to Los Angeles to find a career as a songwriter and producer. In between music jobs, he'd take on small jobs including painting houses.[1] He also joined a number of different bands.
