Patrick Seitz Johnny Yong Bosch MAJA Ana Anesthetic Eyeshine

PATRICK SEITZ is a Los Angeles voiceover actor, script adapter and ADR director who has been fortunate enough to lend his efforts to over 100 anime and video game titles over the last few years.

With most of his resume occupying that odd point where zany, evil, and ethically ambiguous converge, Patrick’s roles include Franky in One Piece, Nekozawa in Ouran, Isshin Kurosaki in Bleach, George in Paradise Kiss, Hazel in Saiyuki Reload Gunlock, Dhaos in Tales of Phantasia, Raul in Ergo Proxy, Koshiro in Koi Kaze, Charles Beams in Eureka Seven, Lee Linho in ROD the TV Series, and Luke Valentine in Hellsing and Hellsing Ultimate.

On the video game side of the ledger, you can hear him as Scorpion and Deathstroke in Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe, Arthas in WoW: Wrath of the Lich King, Dracula in Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, Judgment and The Dracula X Chronicles, Chopin in Eternal Sonata, Radi Jaeger in Valkyria Chronicles and Sergei Vladimir in Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, to name a few.

In addition to the voiceover work, Patrick has done script-adapting and/or ADR direction for Naruto, Blue Dragon, Honey & Clover, Hell Girl, Girls Bravo, Kamichu!, Tales of Phantasia, The Melody of Oblivion, Zegapain, Guardian of the Spirit, and Rumiko Takahashi Anthology.

Patrick has a BA in Creative Writing and an MFA in Creative Writing & Writing for the Performing Arts, both of which he received at the University of California, Riverside. Before falling down the voiceover rabbit hole, he spent two very “Welcome Back, Kotter”esque years teaching English at his old high school.

He is best known for portraying Adam Park, in the once highly popular series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Johnny has also made subsequent appearance in some of the later Power Ranger series, including Power Rangers: Zeo, Power Rangers: Turbo, Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers and Power Rangers: In Space.

Some time after Power Rangers, the Shaolin Kung Fu practicing Johnny met and married his current wife Amy Bosch and in 2000 he entered the world of anime voiceovers. His first voiceover was his most famous thus far, Vash the Stampede in the acclaimed anime series Trigun. From there, Johnny went on to do numerous other main roles in anime while continuing in his alternative rock band called "Eyeshine". Some of his other anime roles include (but are not limited to) Renton Thurston in Eureka 7, Maiku Kamishiro in Please Twins, Haruto Sakaki in Witch Hunter Robin, Kiba in Wolf's Rain, and most recently Ichigo Kurosaki in the immensely popular anime Bleach, and at the same time doing the voice of Leloush Vi Brittania of another anime Code Geass: Leloush of the Rebellion. He was also the voice of Kuhn in the second dot. hack series of games, Dot. Hack G.U. (biography from TV.com)


MAJA is an American lyricist who shares our love and fascination for things like Japanese animation, video games, and the Japanese language. His style has been described as "a breath of fresh air." He rhymes in three different languages: Spanish, Japanese, and English, a fusion he calls Janglish Speak. He is a lover of languages, and writes in whatever language inspires him at that time.

Originally formed out of a dingy garage in southern California, EYESHINE broke into the underground rock scene in 2006 with their debut EP, how about that.

The band's latest album, red stripes white lights, unites Johnny Yong Bosch's introspective melodies with aggressive guitars to combine together some seriously inspired tracks. With standout gems like "Sunday Flower" and "Not Really Good," look for Eyeshine to be a major figure in the indie rock landscape for years to come.

Johnny and Maurice began performing together 7 years ago in a church band. They eventually decided to take a shot at writing and playing their own original music. The band went through many incarnations until settling on the name Eyeshine in 2004. Alex joined the guys the following year becoming their bassist during the recording of their EP. Daniel joined the band in 2007 becoming their lead guitarist.
