Hi, I'm Jonathan Wyman.
I’ve made a lot of records. I have spent most of my adult life inside of recording studios.
It all started innocently enough. I was 19 years old, working on a B.A. in psychology from Bates College. During the summer, I ventured into a studio in Allston, Massachusetts with my band to make a record. To offset the cost, I began interning at the studio. Vacuuming and cleaning led to assisting on sessions and eventually, sessions of my own.
After graduating, I continued to pursue recording, which eventually led me to New York City. In between major label pop sessions, I would steal back to New England to produce independent records. Eventually, I decided to focus on the independents and move back to Maine.
Since then, I have had the privilege of working in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Boston, and of course, my home – Portland. I have collaborated with artists and labels from all over the country and the world, from Northern Maine to Chennai, India.
Over the years, I have amassed a collection of modern and vintage gear, instruments, and amplifiers. I’m able to use these on every session to inspire and enable performance and capture it with a unique and artistic perspective.
I’ve worked alongside some extraordinarily talented engineers and producers, including Tony Visconti (Bowie, T Rex), Beau Hill (Ratt, Jeremiah Freed), and David “Sluggo” Katz (Gym Class Heroes, Train) and collaborated with the likes of Matt Wallace (Faith No More, Maroon Five), Randy Staub (Metallica, Alice In Chains), Brian Malouf (Michael Jackson, Pearl Jam) and of course, Adam Ayan and Bob Ludwig of Gateway Mastering here in Portland.
Working on a diverse range of projects and genres has taught me the single most important thing about making records: serve the song. No matter what the genre of music, the song will dictate the direction the production needs to take. No defaults, no presets, no shortcuts. Just the ability to listen to a song and the experience to know how to bring it to fruition in its fullest potential on an independent budget.
