my name is rohan and i make music and write words primarily. i'm proudly from champaign, illinois, and shamefully living in the suburbs of atlanta, georgia currently. while i do like the actual city of atlanta, and identify with it somewhat, i've always felt strongly tied to illinois and plan on moving to chicago as soon as possible.

for a long time i did not really feel compelled to release the things that i made. i made music for me, because it was fun and i needed some sort of release valve, and songs were often left in an unfinished state anyway because the polishing process was not interesting to me and i didn't care. but i had a friend that really believed in my ability and when they started this big collective/label thing, they wanted me to be a part of it. that made me feel the need to start putting things out, i sort of felt obligated to do that for them. now it's just a part of it for me i suppose. i still don't share the things i write that aren't tied to songs really, but i'm trying to change that.

when i started to release stuff i was using the name farboro, which is the name of the town the characters in the cartoon 'the problem solverz' live in. i was never that satisfied with the name, though, so when i came up with christopher rowin--my two names with swapped position and rohan spelled phonetically--which i liked more, i decided to start using it. i was gonna use it alongside another name, but i've decided against that and will just be using christopher rowin for everything.
