This is where I pull back the curtain on my diverse work in audio. My project blog explores the challenges, tech, and creative solutions behind world-class sound, covering both direct projects and personal experiences from my career.

My musical career has put many acclaimed artists under my faders. Here is a running list.
The Sound Delivered: Relentless Church, Pooler Ga
As a sound engineer, I am responsible for dissolving the looming anxiety over the musical leaders, that is brought forth by technical challenges. I know exactly when that is achieved, because I will suddenly become flush with goosebumps while mixing.
Echo In The Hall: Metallica, Atlanta Ga
The scale of the production is impossible to overstate. There are more than 500 Meyer Sound loudspeakers and miles of cables. Somehow, every inch of space is totally clean. I was some impressed by the polite etiquette of each crew member that I interfaced with.
Sonic Encounters: Engineering for G.E. Smith
Brenden Robertson shares a personal account of engineering sound for G.E. Smith (SNL, Bob Dylan, Hall & Oates) at Live Wire Music Hall. Discover a master's lesson in adaptability and capturing sonic magic.

The Sound Delivered: Savannah Music Festival 2025
I approached this project with the highest level of care, for this festival in my hometown brings the most important musical artists every year. Their audiences must be given every opportunity to hear an ultra-pure translation, from the soul of the artist, to the heart of the listener.
