Neil had a long and successful career as an architect, urban planner and project manager until he hit mid-life and decided he needed a change. Rather than buy a red Porsche, he and his partner sold their family home and established the first vinyl record pressing plant in Brisbane in 35 years. He is now the proud co-owner of Suitcase Records.

Having pressed his first record a year ago, he has now pressed records for everyone from local favourites Full Flower Moon Band and Screamfeeder, through to major Australian acts such as G Flip, Pete Murray and Savage Garden.

He is an avid music lover and vinyl collector, and is on a never ending creative journey. He's not sure what's next, but there is always something new to get excited by.

Neil Wilson will be one of our guest speakers on the upcoming Brisbane Designscape Reconnect '23 on the 4th of November 2023.
