My guest this week is Grammy nominated audio engineer, Nick Sullivan. He's also the co-owner of The Keep Recording and Consonance Publishing, both based in Denver, CO. Since opening their doors in 2014, Nick (along with his business partner, Jeff Kanan) have produced, engineered, mixed and mastered hundreds of records.
One thing that I find unique about Nick, is that he is both fully involved with the creative side of music, as well as the business side. Not that this should be a rare quality... Most artists have to wear multiple hats. The thing that sets Nick apart is his ability to wear both well and at a high level. He welcomes both sides of the industry. His publishing company, Consonance, plays host to over 50 writers, and recently landed placements on Amazon's, Nocturne.
In the episode, we chat about how growing up in a tourist town helped influence his musical tastes, what it's like running a recording studio and publishing company, what artists should do with all of their tracks, and the difference between being purely an artist verses being someone who writes music for film and television.
