Tonight's Legend is Producer & Engineer Stacey Smyre (@RedNoseAudio) from Green Bay, Wisconsin. Stacey grew his love for audio while with his former band Arkangela trying to self-record an album. 

He knew pretty quickly that audio was his forte and he entered the Live Sound industry equiped with his Ipad Controller. Live sound eventually took a toll on him and he converted to doing engineering projects for bands that performed at his live gigs while keeping a day job.

Stacey decided to bite the bullet, quit his job and go full time as a rock producer even during the beginning of the pandemic. He doesn't have the usual home studio setup and often goes from home to home churning out high quality projects in any situation that he faces. Stacey has since built a loyal client base and has never looked back.
