Autorenporträt
Watching Guns N' Roses from the side of the stage in London, standing on the set of Saturday Night Live with Paul Simon, receiving a signed skateboard from Carrie Underwood, and mixing front-of-house sound for Kiss... These are just a handful of experiences in the rearview mirror of Phillip Kriz's extraordinary journey in the music industry as a sought-after "roadie" tech and trusted tour confidant. Born and raised in El Paso, TX, Kriz is influenced by his Spanish, Mexican and Czechoslovakian heritage as evidenced in his debut fiction novel The Roadie Cartel. He discovered music through his parents. Beyond spinning classics by Led Zeppelin and Bob Dylan, playing Howard Stern on their drive to school, his mom predestined his future in the business by buying tickets to his first concert, U2 and Public Enemy at the Sun Bowl. However, a Pink Floyd gig would be the point of no return. After a stint in San Antonio, he graduated from Full Sail University in Orlando where he also worked his first production gigs. Eventually, he landed his "dream job" at production powerhouse Clair Global. Coming full circle, his first assignment placed him on a jaunt with Guns N' Roses in 2010. He hit the road for the better part of the next decade. Clients included Alicia Keys, The Scorpions, Justin Bieber, Florida Georgia Line, Paul Simon, Carrie Underwood, and Queen & Adam Lambert, to name a few. At the onset of the Global Pandemic, the business shutdown, and Phillip found himself at home in Nashville. After hearing former Navy S.E.A.L. and bestselling author Jack Carr guest on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, he decided to write a book of his own and follow in his grandmother's footsteps of writing.In addition to being an author, Phillip is a happily married stay-at-home dad with two adorable little kids, three cats and a dog.
