In episode 173 of the Guitar Music Theory podcast, I sit down with Nashville music producer Jason Wyatt Kuhn to talk about the art of recording and producing music. Jason shares his journey from singer and songwriter to becoming a sought-after producer helping both aspiring artists and hobbyist songwriters bring their music to life. We discuss what it’s like working in the studio, how the production process unfolds, and the critical role a producer plays in shaping a song’s final sound. You’ll even hear before-and-after audio examples that reveal the dramatic transformation from raw work tape to polished master.
