Rachael Moore: Serving the Song from the Inside

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I talk with producer, mixer, and engineer Rachael Moore, whose work spans some of the biggest names in music and film. Rachael has been a major force in Nashville for over a decade, collaborating with legends such as Robert Plant, Alison Krauss, and T-Bone Burnett. She also produced and recorded all the music for the Showtime series George & Tammy, starring Jessica Chastain and Michael Shannon.Rachael shares her journey from growing up in the South to becoming a trusted name in Nashville’s production scene. We discuss her beginnings as a session engineer, the lessons she learned from top producers, and how she built a career by combining technical precision with a deep understanding of artists’ needs. She talks about her work on TV and film projects, including George & Tammy, Nashville, The Old Man, and the indie film Downtown Owl.What stood out to me in our conversation was Rachael’s clear commitment to collaboration and service. She sees music production as a people-first business and takes pride in delivering on an artist’s vision, sometimes in unconventional ways, but always with heart. From navigating the pandemic to shaping organic sounds across genres like country, Americana, indie, and rock, Rachael’s story is a testament to adaptability, creativity, and love for the craft.Thank you for listening!
