He was born in North London, England, in 1963. His Armenian and Irish parents met while they were on tour with their bands en route to the Middle East. His Irish mother was the lead singer in the all-girl group the Beat-Chics, who opened four concerts for the Beatles in Spain in August 1965.[1] According to an interview with KGTV reporter Phil Konstantin, Page showed little interest in academic or business studies as a boy. However, he was always fascinated listening to 78 rpm records on his grandfather's phonograph.[2] Upon arriving in the United States, he began a series of odd jobs, including as a cab driver and cook. He also began tirelessly writing and recording his own brand of music. According to Page: "The tightrope my music teeters upon is the struggle between tradition & progress, history & fantasy. I am the songbird & the worm."[3] Page's music has been featured on BBC, NPR, and film and television soundtracks.[4] Besides working on his own music, Page has also worked with an array of artists such as Jason Mraz, John Doe, Jewel, Tom Brosseau, Steve Poltz, John C. Reilly and A.J. Croce.[5] According to Mraz: "He’s the real deal, a rare gift." In 1996, John Doe, formerly of the band X, provided lead guitar on and produced his independently released Fare thee Well album, which was never released. In the 1990s, Page was a member of The Rugburns.[6] Page was a special guest on Jason Mraz and Toca Rivera's 2018 Live in Stereo tour, which visited cities across the United States.[7] He is currently living in Southern California and frequently tours Europe and Australia.[5][8] He has released two books of his poetry, The Blank Page [9] and Let's Go Get Lost.
