[Client List: Albums]

”When I take on your project, I encourage pre-production, which saves on time and cost in the long run, involving me visiting your band at your rehearsal or studio space and working out exactly what we are going to record and the best process to record it.”
Bryan Hall Productions' Studio is located in Valley Village, California.

PRODUCER:

Bryan has been involved in making records since the early 90’s, working with people like Dave Jerden (Alice In Chains, Jane’s Addiction, Offspring), Bryan Carlstrom (White Zombie, Stavesacre, Project 86) and Jack Kelly (drummer, Lifehouse).

ENGINEER:
When most bands hear the sounds produced by Bryan’s studio equipment, they track with this gear rather than use their own amplification. See partial list of equipment below. A producer who also runs the board saves on time, expense and communication.

REFERENCE:
"My drums sound better in here than things I've done at A&M Studios!"
Gregg Bissonette


GUITARIST:
As a musician, Bryan’s influences range from U2 to Pink Floyd, to Simon & Garfunkel to Charlie Parker. Numerous Bryan Hall-produced CDs for other artists also rely on Bryan’s guitarwork to complete the picture. Having a musician on the other side of the console also ensures that you as the Client are getting an artist’s trained ear backing up your musical product.
