132: CHEZ STOCK/TM, FOH/Amanda Palmer, David Ramirez, Marilyn Manson, Alice Cooper

 iTunes          Spotify          Youtube           Patreon Chez Stock is a experienced Tour Manager and Front of House engineer currently on tour with Amanda Palmer. She has toured extensively since 2007, building steadily on her no-nonsense work ethic, and a desire to continuously improve and grow as an engineer. Growing up as a music fan in Alaska, Chez quickly realized that to develop her interest in the music industry she would have to seek that education elsewhere, and she eventually ended up graduating from the Art Institute of Seattle in Audio Production. From there, she went on to spend five years with Carlson Audio Systems, as Production Manager and Sound Tech before eventually outgrowing the region. Chez then moved on to Eighth Day Sound, where she spent four years working with major artists such as The Black keys, Eminem, Tool, and Slayer/Megadeath. Along with her passion for sound, Chez also works diligently and at times aggressively, to champion women, minorities, and those struggling to find their voice within an industry where social norms can be difficult to change.
