If you want to hear what Mike Shipley’s been doing lately, just turn on the closest radio or change the channel to MTV.  A top music industry veteran, Shipley has been behind the board applying his mixing wizardry to some of the most widely regarded pop, rock, and country albums of our time.  From his early years working at the famed Wessex studios in London, to his career-boosting stint with Joni Mitchell in the mid-’80s, this Grammy winning, Melbourne Australia native has amassed a discography full of some of the biggest and most important artist of the past three decades, including Aerosmith, AC/DC, Faith Hill, Nickelback, Shania Twain and Maroon 5. When asked what his biggest strength as a mixer is, Shipley replies: “I'd say it's being able to get what the client wants and to give them more than they expect. And I know how to make space for things; I know that much for sure.”
