Cheeks is a mixed media artist who has worked, starved, thrived, and played in Hollywood for the last five years. After studying film production with a focus on editing, he moved into song writing and music production before honing his comedic skills at the Second City, Los Angeles.
In 2008, Cheeks released an EP of electro pop titled 'The Boy from Venus.' His second EP, 'Glambition,' debuted at number 8 on the iTunes charts and has jumped to #3 in less than a week. He co-wrote and recorded the title song for the horror short, "Side Effect," currently raking in top honors from film festivals around the world. Cheeks has been receiving raves as the evil, arch villain, drag queen 'Basil' in Ash Christian's “Lushes,” which appeared in L.A.’s Outfest and San Francisco’s Frameline film festival.
Cheeks and director Larson collaborated on the wild music video for the second single from “Glambition” entitled “Instant Gratification.” Most recently, Cheeks has appeared on Showtime’s “Torchwood: Miracle Day” and in the smash web series “Husbands,” which is set to premiere its second season very soon.
Cheeks frequently releases self produced content of all forms and is quickly gaining a reputation online as an artist who inspires thought, laughter, and arousal.
