Tobias Jeg, JBTV Static Age co-host, is a Chicago transplant from Washington state via San Francisco, drawn here by the city´s vibrant music culture.

Between working for Fat Wreck Chords, writing for Alternative Press and AMP magazines, and starting record label Red Scare Industries, this guy is overflowing with punk rock street cred. He´s worked closely with a few burgeoning bands you may have heard of, like NOFX, Rise Against, The Lawrence Arms, and Against Me!.

You might have run into him at concert venues around the Chicago, hosting Red Scare Presents events with a few of the label´s active bands, including Teenage Bottlerocket, Cobra Skulls, The Falcon, and more. When he´s not working, he´s cheering on his favorite soccer team or dominating the jukebox at Gingerman Tavern in Wrigleyville in Chicago.


Favorite Band: I'm sure they're out there somewhere. Maybe Propagandhi?

Best Concert Ever: 

That's impossible. The most recent was Cock Sparrer at Metro for Riot Fest 2009.


Top 3 Albums of All Time: 

Bad Brains "Rock For Light"
