About
My fascination with music started at a young age. I've been singing since I could talk, pushing buttons on stereo receivers since I could stand and writing music since I realized it made me feel good ... to do it. Fast forward 39 years and I've played shows with industry legends, recorded and produced for dozens over dozens of clients, taught audio engineering both privately and publicly and have written a lot of music I'm in love with along side my favorite collaborators and friends.
I'm never more grounded, focused and helpful than when I'm allowed to do what I do best and in all cases (and no matter the professional hat I wear that day) that thing is to serve the song.
In another life, I booked hundreds of shows, organized 1000+ person music festivals and ran live sound for entirely too many bands, events and speaking engagements. It's a life you can't really plan to lead, but the experiences have made me better.
I've got a beautiful wife, a creative/weird and wonderful pair of step-kids, various fur-centric pets and a Yurt. I divide my time between Vermont's Northeast Kingdom and the Bennington, VT area where I maintain both living situations and recording facilities.
I look forward to helping you develop your capacity as an engineer/producer and having a lot of fun together in the process!read more
