This week's guest is recording engineer and mixer Cameron Lister. Cameron has spent most of his career in the engineering hot seat for indie and alternative records from artists such as The Fratellis, OK GO, KT Tunstall, Better Than Ezra, and Andrew McMahon. We chat about how a career in music is made up of incremental steps, each building on the momentum of the last one and how hard work and follow through are the key to success.
