Here are some random thoughts . . . I live, breathe, and eat music . . .music is art, and it is very much like making a painting, you want to feel something from it . . .I'm a producer/mixing engineer and I spend most days slaving over a hot console . . . nothing intrigues me like finding talented new artists and helping them become successful . . . I have a wonderful wife named Leslie . . . I started in the music business as a musician . . . did I say I am into music yet? . . . I love mixing to analogue tape . . . I have a somewhat dry, English sense of humor that some people get and some people don't . . . I lived in LA for a good number of years . . . and still enjoy spending time there . . . although I like coming home . . .
I have been very blessed to work with some of the best engineers and producers on the planet including: Andy Johns (Led Zepplin), Michael Wagener (Ozzy Osbourne, Janet Jackson, Metallica), Garth Richardson (Rage Against the Machine, Chevelle), Howard Benson (P.O.D., My Chemical Romance, Hoobastank), Terry Date (Limp Bizkit, White Zombie), Bill Kennedy (Nine Inch Nails, Megadeath), Mick Guzauski (Christina Aguilera, Maria Carey), Mac (Queen), Desmond Child (Ricky Martin, Aerosmith), Kevin Smith, and J.R. McNeely (Relient K, Kutless, Underoath)
I've worked with a very wide range of groups and individuals, (yes, sometimes even I think it's weirdly diverse), and the list includes internationally known artists such as Esterlyn, Trik Turner, Chris and Conrad, Bob Carlisle, Debbie Sledge, Ever Stays Red, LaRue, Re:zound, Alice Cooper, Ricardo, House of Lords, The Beach Boys, Megadeth, Mosiaco, Jordan Rudess, Gene Simmons, Scott Krippayne, Northern Light Orchestra, and many new, breaking artists such as Ember, Silverline, Jason Allen Rich, Seven Stories Up, Kelly Mack, Tayla, Kendall Gaveck, Raven James, Elida Young, Amanda Wolfe, Brian Weaver, and hopefully many more to come . . . stay tuned!!
The wide range of music and entertainment companies we have worked with include Fox, Universal, EMI, RCA, Benson, MCA, Trump Enterprises, (yes, as in The Donald), TBN, Zebra, Provident, Reunion, Sony/BMG, Suburban Noise, CBS, BEC, ABC Family, VSR Music Group and a whole bunch more . . .
