If you ask Brad where he comes from, his response is that he comes from the pits of hell. It's the place where he was galvanized into the person he is today. Brad, or Drac, as most of his musician friends call him, lived a hell on Earth during his teens and early twenties. Although he struggled with mental illness and drug addiction throughout his teens, he became a man of passion for others.  He was diagnosed as a schizophrenic when he was eighteen and considered himself a broken person for many years after that. Finally, he realized his purpose in life through his music. The harder the demons inside his mind tortured him, the more determined Drac was to pursuit his dream of becoming a professional musician. He now serves as an example to other mentally ill people of what someone can do when you put your mind to a goal and pursue it.

Brad Draconis

Born and raised in Southern California, Drac showed his musical talents at the age of five years, when his mother observed him singing along to Beatle songs. during his growing years, Drac began to to master different instruments. He quickly learned that he could instinctively play any instrument he picked up. Not until later did Drac realized that not everyone could play music. As he became more serious about his music, he began to focus on his professional career. Although he continues to struggle with his mental illness every day, he is determined to win his battle. It is this determination that propelled Drac to graduate high school with a diploma and not just a certificate of attendance. It was this same fortitude that he summoned to earn his degree in Sound Production.

With visions of building their private studio in their minds, EBGB and Drac began construction in late 2006. After years of planning and research, they realized their dream in 2007, when Drac recorded the tracks for Necrobellum in his new studio. Drac christened his studio, The Draconic Threatcon Studio or "Threatcon" as Drac likes to call it. They invite you to view pictures of the studio throughout its process in the Photo Album found in the Photo Page.

After high school and college, Drac collaborated with EBGB to write the lyrics to a few of the songs that would soon serve as the musical foundation for Drac's first band, The Knights Of Draconis. EBGB is Drac's biggest fan and supporter of his career, both emotionally and financially.  Together, the two of them create a dynamic team. Each brings to the table their individual creative talents and skills to form Draconic Productions. Their hope for the future is to eventually establish their own record label so they can help other talented musicians.

Drac has performed at numerous venues in California. He and his band were selected to play at the New York International Music Festival. He has been interviewed and his music music has been featured on a number of radio stations, which includes the "The Next Big Thing" on KALX out of Berkeley California. His music video, "Fallen" has won numerous awards including The Philadelphia Video Festival and Edison Film Festival in Florida. Currently Drac is developing his new music DVD of one of his new songs from Necrobellum. He has been awarded a variety of awards from "Song Of The Year".  Currently, Drac and Big Noise are looking forward to Drac's nomination for the 51st Grammys in 2009.

When not in the studio recording, Drac keeps busy taking care of his many pets, including his cat Darom; his puppy Ottis; and his Argentine Rainbow Boa Sammy. He also maintains his 100 gallon fresh water tropical aquarium. He loves going to his friends' concerns and going to clubs in Hollywood/Los Angeles.

He also acquired a KZ 1000 from his friend Richard and is in the process of chopping it. He loves to watch a good horror movie that he can entertain himself analyzing how the effects were made. Drac welcomes you and hopes you enjoy his website.
