Mountainside Recording Studio is nestled in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, just minutes from downtown Charlottesville and the University of Virginia. It was designed by renowned acoustic architect John H Brandt. The tracking and control rooms were custom built to his exacting, world class acoustic studio design specifications. For real for real.

The result is a highly creative, relaxed, inspiring, and sonically impeccable space for audio and video recording and production. This is a recording studio of the finest quality, set in a uniquely peaceful forest, untouched in over a century. Surrounded by over 50 species of trees, some over 150 feet tall, the studio provides equal parts solitude and professionalism.

With over two decades as a member of the local music and arts community here in Charlottesville, I'm proud to offer Mountainside Recording Studio as a quality content creation space for solo artists and bands, producers and mix engineers, voice actors, podcasters, and other creatives.

If you are still reading, know that I'm especially grateful for the unique generosity of spirit and diversity that reside within the music and arts community here in Central Virginia. Also, and in the clearest terms possible: Fuck Nazis.

Even more reading about me? Sure! When I was 23, I moved to Charlottesville, after finishing my degree and learning music production in London, England under noted producer Tim Laws. He had an amazing SSL room in this crazy multi-studio recording complex called Stanley House in the late 90's and early 2000's. I learned so much about not only where to put microphones and how to comp a vocal, but far more importantly, I learned how to be in a room with an artist or band as the creative process unfolds. It's something I've worked on for more than 25 years as a drummer and percussionist, band leader, engineer, mixer, fake mastering engineer, and producer of a wide variety of recordings. In addition to over a thousand live performances, my studio work and credits span dozens of albums, audiobooks, podcasts, voiceovers and soundtracks for film, TV, radio, and national internet ad campaigns, and more. It's magic, and I approach every day with gratitude and coffee.
