History
According to an interview printed in the Violet Evergarden: Automemories Soundtrack Booklet, Call began playing the guitar at age 13. During Call's high school enrollment, he was a member for his school's chorus. After graduating from high school, Call enrolled in the Berklee College of Music, where he majored in film scoring.

In another interview by Yohei Hosokawa, Call says that after graduating from the Berklee College of Music, he debated if he should pursue a career in film music in Hollywood. In the end, he decided to move to Japan on a tourist visa in order to work in the Japanese anime and game industry. Three months after his arrival in Japan, he was introduced to Junpei Fujita, a music creator working at Elements Garden. After an interview with Fujita and a review of his music portfolio, he joined Elements Garden and began composing music in Japan in 2012, where he was gained attention for his grand arrangements and impressive symphonic music. After his employment, Call was introduced to a sound director at Kyoto Animation by the name of Yota Tsuruoka. Alongside Tsuruoka, Call began composing Anime soundtracks for Tokyo ESP and Violet Evergarden. Call would continue to compose soundtracks for other Anime and Anime Films such as Josee, the Tiger and the Fish.

Call was a originally a member of Aria Entertainment and Elements Garden, but left the groups on June 30, 2016. Since then, he has been a member of Miracle Bass (ミラクル・バス).
