Phil started his music career at 14 years old when he began working at Murphy’s Music on Long Island, NY. He traded his time at the store for equipment and began recording his friends in the basement of his house. He went on to work for Telefunken Elektroakustik while getting a degree in Audio Engineering Technology from the University of Hartford.
