In this episode of Inside the Music, StereoRuss sits down with producer, mixer, and studio owner Will Crann at the legendary Catherine North Studios in Hamilton, Ontario.

Will shares his journey to becoming co-owner of one of Hamilton’s most beloved recording spaces. He opens up about his early days playing bass in House Art, how a broken piece of gear led to an internship that turned into studio ownership, and why he's grateful for the people he works with.

The conversation dives into the realities of running a commercial studio, everything from cleaning mixes to cleaning bathrooms. Will also reflects on what makes a great collaboration between artist and producer and the emotional depth of a good mix.

Whether you’re a gearhead, a budding artist, or just a fan of stories from behind the scenes, this episode is a down to earth look at what it really means to live a life in music, and build a space where others can do the same.
