Brad Warner was born in Hamilton, Ohio,[1] in 1964. His family traveled for his father's job and Warner spent some time in Nairobi, Kenya,[2] but grew up mainly near Akron, Ohio,[2] and attended Kent State University. As a teenager Warner got into the music of the 1960s and hardcore punk,[3] and a friend of his took him to a show by Zero Defex. He auditioned for and joined the band[4] after finding out they needed a bass guitarist. He began practicing Zen Buddhism under his first teacher, Tim McCarthy.[2][5][6] Warner later studied with Gyomay Kubose.[3]
He has played with Dimentia 13. After the financial failure of his Dimentia 13 albums, Warner got a job in Japan with the JET Programme, and then later in 1994 with Tsuburaya Productions who made Ultraman.[3] Warner played the roles of various foreigners in their programs. While in Japan he met and trained with Gudo Wafu Nishijima,[5][6] who ordained him as a priest.

In 2007 he directed the documentary film Cleveland’s Screaming, which depicts the punk rock scene in Akron and Cleveland in the 1980s.[8][9]
