And he won’t stop singing We Are The World at the end of every session… We Are The World!… Yeah.

My favorite part of the Workshop has been the exposure to all these different ways to make music. To record music with everyone’s different styles of music, everyone’s different backgrounds, until they just break your brain about everything you knew…

Cullinan has artistic roots in the Palo Alto area, where he was a music student at Stanford and a resident and music teacher in Los Altos after graduation.Cullinan created the Doctor Noize persona as an outlet for his passion for music as well as his love for the educational aspects of the medium. He credits his own children as well as the children he taught as a music teacher for inspiring him to write music with kids as the intended audience.

Cory has a background in music that educates and inspires. And to make their efforts even sweeter, Cory’s company, Doctor Noize, is making its curriculum and educational free online, with the hope that parents can put it to good use while kids are home.

Cullinan began composing music in junior high school, and fell in love with classical and orchestral music while attending Stanford University. Since then he has created and recorded numerous music releases, and taught many aspects of music composition and production to youth. He’s led an award-winning youth choir (winners of Disneyland’s huge Music in the Park competition) and his music has appeared in television shows, movies and documentaries.
