Cappel Recording

09/03/2024

Happy release day to Toledo’s finest, Hit & Run! It was so much fun to have you guys in the studio and to work on your first project. One of my favorite parts of running a studio is getting to be part of the excitement involved when a young band gets into the studio for the first time. I remember being in their shoes and how it felt. I hope you all go on to do great things with your music! Link ⬇️

I’ve had some good things happen in the sync world lately landing a few of my instrumental compositions on Secret Celebrity Renovation (CBS), Jimmy Kimmel Live, and a NHL Hockey telecast. It can take a while, but hard work and clicking “export” does sometimes work out alright 👍😎. Happy recording!
