Musical career

A Skylit Drive (2008–2016)

Jagmin joined A Skylit Drive to replace original vocalist, Jordan Blake, who left for health concerns in 2007. Since then he has been featured on four full-length releases, Wires...and the Concept of Breathing, Adelphia, Identity on Fire, Rise, and ASD (2015), as well as the DVD, Let Go of the Wires. In early 2017, it was announced that Jagmin quit ASD, which turned out later to be false from Jagmin himself. It was later announced from Jagmin that the band was in hiatus due to conflict between founder and guitarist, Nick Miller, and him.
