Joe shares how he made the journey from touring band member to sound engineer. He also talks about developing the work ethic that led him to work on sounds for attractions at Universal Studios, the music for Barney & Friends, and sound design for films like Braveheart. Emmeline and Joe discuss how a musician's mentality can and should shift for live shows and studio work. Then, Joe gives a glimpse behind the curtain of his new studio at Campbell Crossing and invites singer-songwriters of all stripes to reach out for recording assistance!
