Services Provided: Event production management, live sound reinforcement, lighting design.
Clients: Been in the business for almost 20 years now and have worked with almost every genre of music and every artist from Alison Krauss to Ice-T. Currently, I manage a university venue, so I am mostly limited to the various student ensembles here, but still have groups like Ladysmith Black Mambazo come through. I get my rock ‘n’ roll fix each time my friend Tony Levin comes to town.
Quote: “No worries.”
