This post is just to let people know that I will no longer be taking on new mixing clients for a while. I will still be available to record bands, in a very limited capacity. But until further notice my focus will be on recording and mixing projects I am involved in. Thanks!

Recording Alice.
Last weekend the band Alice and I began recording their second full length album.
