ABOUT
THE OWNER
Brian
Hewson has been working in the sound and recording industry for over twenty
eight years. Back in the early 70’s he was a Bass player then guitar
player in many local Bands .He had a keen interest in music and
equipment so in 1977 he enrolled in the Media Arts program at Sheridan College
in Oakville Ontario to study recording & film . During the 3 year course he
had a chance to do many recordings and worked with some up and coming
stars such as Rick Santers and Platinum Blonde.
After
graduation he began working at Soundpath Productions in Oakville. First as an
assistant , then as an engineer .It was here that he worked on some great
projects such as Triumphs “Stages” album , the Spoons “listen to the city
“album, demos by Lee Aaron , Tim Thorney, Joel Feeney , Lisa Dalbello and
many others . As well as hundreds of commercials and film soundtracks.
While still at Soundpath he began teaching part time at Sheridan College
teaching the 3rd year Audio and
Recording course, a position which
he held for 14 years. During this time he was doing freelance engineering
with artists like , The Mercy Brothers and Jeff Bird and also doing live sound
on Queen street in Toronto. In 1986 he built a small but efficient studio in
Acton Ontario and called it “Escarpment Sound Studio” because of the
Niagara escarpment running through the Area.
For five years he worked out of this small 16 track studio doing
demo’s , Commercials and albums including 3 Stompin Tom Connors projects.
Then
in 1990 he purchased a 23 acre farm that had a stone barn foundation
that he knew would be perfect for the large studio that he wanted
to build.
Work
was completed in 1991 and the new Escarpment Sound Studio was born.
This is where Brian now works full time doing all kinds of recording ,
producing , guitar playing , and taking care of the studio. After
renovating the farm house on the
property Brian moved in to the home where he now lives with his wife Barb and
his daughter Hannah.
