I used to hate going to certain concerts when I was a Teenager because the sound wouldn’t be right!
Now, 20 Yrs later, I’m the 1 behind the console pushing buttons, turning knobs, sliding faders! 🎚️🎛️🎶🎼 Thank you @digico.official for making it so much easier!
I’m still and forever will be a musician, I just have a different instrument now!

“Shows don’t break by accident.
They break because systems aren’t built right.”
I help artists build tour-ready playback + FOH systems so nothing breaks on show day!
Ive been able to work with multiple artist over the last decade like @keithsweat , @monicadenise , @official_je , @fantasia , @alexvaughn , @jodeci , @officialswv , @officialxscape , @marshaambrosius , @tolouofficial , and many others! The one consistent thing I’ve been able to do is provide peace of mind that their live show will go smooth and flawless!
Tap in and Comment “Playback” if you’re ready to level up!
Thank you @henrystrangesystems

If you know, you know.
Every cable has a purpose. Every session has a backup.
Running Playback doesn’t forgive mistakes… so I do my best not to make ‘em. 😤

I was running playback on this tour with @fantasia , and about halfway through, our MD @ericewill wanted to add some MJ flavor to part of one of the songs! Of course I said, “I’ll Do It!” Lol
But the best part is when @toussaintliptonii_30 came and played it like He wrote the Whole song! Sheesh man!

Before hitting the arena or any other venue, it’s important that we spend time in rehearsals to get it sounding right at the core!

This was a Special moment with the #QueenOfATL @monicadenise and the homies @bandmvp ! It was my 1st time at @caesarssuperdome for the @essencefest ! It’s moments like these where I’m reminded of the power of consistency! Grab and hold the people you care and love! (Life is but a Vapor)
We had some good ol times! 🙌🏾 🎶 🎼 🎵

Running playback isn’t just pressing play, it’s being locked in and Paying attention to your MD and listening for Audibles in the show!
Rockin with the RNB King @keithsweat
It was @antferris who 1st vouched for me to get my shot at touring as a Playback engineer! ✊🏾
Since then, he has become a playback engineer himself! We Lit!! 🙌🏾
I challenge you to challenge yourself this year! Learn something new, a new skill, a new instrument, read a book, SOMETHING! Grow!
I promise you, it’ll change your life when you least expect it!
