FRANK FILIPETTI

Creating Behind The Console

If you’re a music buff like me, you could listen to seven time Grammy Award winning engineer and producer Frank Filipetti talk all day long.  There are stories of joy and inspiration and an improbable journey, working with James Taylor and Carly Simon, Broadway musical casts and recording the traditional sounds of the Bush men and women in southern Africa.

 He can perhaps understand the musician better than most engineers and producers.  In the first ten years of his career, he was that musician, gigging and recording and surviving and dreaming in New York.   And then at 31, he found himself professionally adrift and had to make a decision.  We’ve been the beneficiaries of that decision.

Frank is currently part of a show at the Sheen Center in New York called Studio Confidential: Music’s greatest behind the console stories.  Ticket info is at https://www.sheencenter.org/events/detail/studio-confidential-1
