KENNY MCWILLIAMS
Over the last 20 years Kenny McWilliams has helped a diverse group of bands and solo artists across the Southeast produce records that highlight their strengths and individualities as musicians. What began as an interest in production and sound engineering has now turned into a professionally outfitted studio that is proud to host some of the most talented artists in the region. Kenny strives to retain the artistic integrity of each of his clients while also experimenting with new approaches and techniques to the recording process. He is a multi-instrumentalist and enjoys collaborating with each artist on musical concepts, offering a wide range of production options, and taking the time to find out what kind of recording process will best suit the project at hand.
TODD MATHIS
At heart, Todd is a songwriter. He works tirelessly to improve and explore how a song can speak to the listener. His love of the recording process began in college when he borrowed a cassette 4-track from his jazz history professor to complete an end of the year assignment. Quickly thereafter he purchased his own recorder and also began playing, writing, recording and helping produce his own bands. Working with highly regarded engineers and producers throughout his career, Todd always paid close attention and asked questions in order to understand the process better and what made things click. The engineers and producers that Todd has worked with that have shaped his approach to recording include: Mitch Easter, Dave Cobb, Mark Rains, Brian Sperber, Steve Slavich, Paul Bodamer, Carl Burnitz, John Epps, Chris Stamey, John Morand, Chris Mara and many others.
CARL BURNITZ
Starting his career at the University of South Carolina’s School of Music, Carl Burnitz worked with Jeff Francis providing recordings for student recitals, remote choir performances, and various live and studio events. He has produced radio commercials, ADR for film, and received recognition for his audio editing on Michelle Obama’s audio book, “Becoming”. Carl enjoys working with musicians of varying genres to help bring their albums to completion, through recording, editing, mixing, or mastering. Carl’s ultimate goal is to make the recording process easy and fun. He views himself as an instrument in an artist’s creative process and he seeks to make their vision a reality.
