About byung
Byung is the first name and moniker of instrumentalist/singer-songwriter BJ Choe.
As a 1st generation Korean-American who grew up in the bible belt, BJ has developed an eccentric music palette evidenced by the first album he purchased, Sisqo's Unleash the Dragon, his high school prog-rock band, classical guitar training, and contemporary church gigs. It was only shortly after discovering singer-songwriters like Justin Vernon, William Fitzsimmons, David Bazan, Ben Gibbard, Sufjan Stevens, and many others that stirred BJ to write songs that tell his own story.
Byung is ready to release a collection of songs that explore previous psychological melodies about memory, loss, relationships, and faith. For a decade, Byung has been developing these stories, setting lyrics to his layered ambient instrumentals, and discovering his voice. His debut record, Humid Memories, is set to release on September 2nd, 2022.
