Live sound · Sherman Oaks & the LA Area

Your venue doesn't need to have sound. I bring the sound with me.

What a standard night includes

  • Main PA matched to the room, and a Behringer Wing, mixed from an iPad all night
  • Mics, monitors, and DIs for your lineup; stands, cabling, playback, power
  • Setup, soundcheck, teardown
  • Travel within 30 miles

That's the baseline, not the ceiling. I bring what your show needs, from a rig with 40 inputs, 20 microphones, 6 channels of DI, and six monitor mixes — a full band with a drum kit, three background vocals, and a four-piece horn section fits without a special conversation, and there are inputs free for whatever the band brings.

On volume

Loud enough that the people up front feel it in their chests. Not so loud that the people in the back are shouting over it, or going home with their ears ringing. That's the range I mix in, and it's on purpose.

How I work

Mixed all night

The room changes as it fills and the band's energy shifts. I keep mixing from the iPad while walking the room. Soundcheck is the start, not the end.

I bring everything, including power

Coffee shops, galleries, backyards, community events. I don't sub out load-in or borrow gear.

One person, every question

One number, one calm voice, answered before you have to ask twice.

Sherman Oaks, Encino, Studio City, Van Nuys, Burbank, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, North Hollywood, Malibu.

How booking me works

  1. Call me. Tell me the room, the date, and who's playing.
  2. I ask anything missing and send a flat quote.
  3. I show up early, set up, and soundcheck with the band.
  4. I mix the whole show and pack out. You don't think about sound again.

Tell me about your night.

Date, room, and who's playing is enough to start.
