ABOUT IAIN
An award winning songwriter, producer, singer, and multi-instrumentalist, Iain has been in the music business for over 20 years.
See what people are saying about me and the services I offer:
“Iain is a very talented producer and musician who is an absolute pleasure to work with. He is approachable, friendly and very professional. Iain’s creative input to my work in the studio helped me greatly. He understood my music and helped me to express the sound I was looking for through his ability to play many instruments, and his highly skilled production ability. I would recommend him to anyone, and hope to work with him again in the future on other projects.”
“Iain recorded four songs by our twenty voice a cappella choir in one evening session. He was a joy to work with, being careful of our particular requirements whilst offering the specialist technology and knowhow we required. The results can be heard on www.andantechamberchoir.webs.com and we hope to work with him again. What greater recommendation can there be than that?!”
“I worked in Iain’s studio during two separate recording sessions for my band The Moon, the Son & the Daughters. Given that we had decided to try and record a six track EP with nine musicians in two days, Iain handled our musical mob like a pro. His calm attitude was present at all times and he embraced every request that we threw at him – three part vocal harmony? Easy. String quartet? No problem. We left with some of our best recordings and some great memories of a weekend’s work well done, and Iain was always on hand to offer advice afterwards when we needed it.”
“I would highly recommend Iain as a Producer/ Engineer! Ive worked with Iain recording some of my own songs. Ive always found him an extremely conscientious Producer/Engineer, and a consummate musician. His enthusiasm and verve for his profession is infectious and inspiring. His input and ideas during the recording process are also an educational experience for me, being new to this business. I personally look forward to working with him in the future.”
“Iain is a very intuitive guy and a great musician in his own right. He gets right into the feel of it and does whatever it takes to bring the identity of the music out. It was a great pleasure to work with him.”
“I highly recommend record’n at Awake Studios….if you need the best production possible with a professional. Iain Petrie is not only an exceptional Engineer/ Producer, but an exceptional musician/songwriter. That is important, when you have someone in the studio who understands musical structure and can be helpful in the complicated building of musical layers. He his helpful in understand’n keep’n things simple. 5 stars frae Me, Yours Jesse Rae”
“It was a great pleasure and fantastic experience working with Iain at Awake music Studios. Iain did a great job on the whole album, adding his magic to each track and making then come alive”
“As a professional recording artist for over 25 years, I had always found studio recording a daunting, nerve-wracking and stressful experience. Recording with Iain, however, was a revelation. He enabled me to feel totally relaxed and at ease throughout our session, and yet everything ran quickly and smoothly.
Iain is not only a highly talented musician, producer and engineer but he possesses exactly the right attitude and personality to make any recording session a highly enjoyable and rewarding experience, whilst producing fantastic results.
I would have no hesitation in awarding him the highest recommendation.”
“Working with Iain has been a wonderful creative process. His understanding of what it was I wanted meant that along with his own creative input and wonderful musical ability, producing the tracks was a straightforward and uncomplicated process. I had full confidence in his ability to finish my songs to a high standard, which he did.”
