Veteran front of house engineer Paul Bevan joins the show in Episode 253 and discusses his eclectic career that includes mixing a wide range of gigs, from regal (Boston Pops Fourth of July) to raucous (Mott the Hoople), and just about everything in between. This episode is sponsored by Allen & Heath and RCF.

While his music mixing resume is extensive — including The Spin Doctors, Hall & Oates, The Chieftains, and more — and his corporate and broadcast resumes are equally vast, Paul is perhaps best known for helping create the genre of showing films with the score performed live by a symphony orchestra, a specialty that’s led to mixing countless performances such as the Lord of the Rings and Star Wars movies, Amadeus, and doing both the live and broadcast mixes for the Emmy Award winning Danny Elfman’s Music from the Films of Tim Burton — Live From Lincoln Center
