Recently arrived in Vernon after 12 years in Moscow (Russia), previous to that 4 years in NYC, previous to that 20 years in Vancouver. Specialist: tight commercial song production, vocal coaching. Have 30+ years of experience as professional vocalist/multi-instrumentalist/record producer/engineer , so have plenty of old-school mentality. That said, I do enjoy all sorts of hyper-modern styles, as long as there is no musical laziness. "The Song" > "The Artist's Ego"

Influences
rock AND roll... ;-)
Everything musical, with special emphasis on Western popular music from about 1930 to present day. If I had to name a holy trinity it would be Beatles/Who/Stones... but that would leave out several hundred close contenders.
Members Of Band
Looking for interesting original music projects to produce - must have at least three serious musicians who can record 'live' together. Enjoy working with singers who possess both personality AND pitch control. Not interested in drum programmers or in six months of overdubs to get the bed tracks. Prefer a basic stripped down live musical basis captured simply. After that, things can get as crazy as you like (or not). I am allergic to Auto-tune, but fine with every other effect ever invented...
EQUIPMENT
guitars, basses, amps, drums, mics, etc
