BACKGROUND
CROLIUS was the founder of The Music Factory... the largest recording, jingle, commercial music production and rehearsal studio in the Philadelphia area at the time. The Music Factory produced over 2000 jingles, 14 music library compilations as well as a plethora of Film, TV and Radio music spanning all musical styles.

It was while studying Music Theory at the University of California in Santa Barbara that CROLIUS began seriously writing songs. He continued his pursuit of the craft of songwriting while teaching Guitar and Music Theory. In 1988 he opened, what would become, one of the largest Commercial Music Production, Recording and Rehearsal studio facilities in the Philadelphia area. At The Music Factory, along with his partner Jeff Calhoon, he provided services, produced and recorded hundreds of local and national acts as well as personally penning, arranging and recording film, television, music library and single-song compositions for every imaginable application.

He later returned to California where he produced, wrote, and arranged a weekly radio show as well as continuing to compose commercial and contemporary pop music. As President of the Santa Barbara Songwriter's Guild he worked tirelessly with the National Academy of Songwriters and industry publishers and performers to develop National Song Contests, Songwriter Forums and other events in support of songwriting and the songwriter.

CROLIUS has a B.A. degree in Music from the University of the State of New York.
