BOB POWER
Grammy and Multi-platinum Producer/Mixer
"Do you want to get rich and famous, or do you want a career? (We will work toward the latter, which can also get you the first!). Rather than “waiting for something to happen,” work to establish your trajectory as a professional in the music industry. Emphasis will be placed on developing a compelling image, expanding your catalog, getting traction for yourself through digital communications, positioning yourself as a working professional, and developing a broad-based technical, professional, and interpersonal skillset beyond simply I’m an artist."
