Steve Fisk (Pigeonhed, Producer) - EP214 - The Creative Asylum

In this episode, I spend some time with an old friend and one of my favorite conversationalists, the legendary (and always funny) Pacific Northwest producer and musician Steve Fisk. In a behind-the-scenes candid chat with one of the architects of some of the region’s most adventurous and influential music, we discuss his working with Nirvana, Soundgarden, Beat Happening, Unwound, Screaming Trees and Carseat Headrest. Known for his adventurous ear and willingness to push bands beyond their comfort zones, Fisk has long been a key figure in the creative ecosystem that helped define the sound of the Pacific Northwest.Similar to Jack Endino, Steve’s story isn't limited to the recording studio: He has a very cool resume as a musician, having played in Pell Mell and the genre-bending collaboration, Pigeonhed with Shawn Smith of BRAD. In this conversation, Fisk reflects on his decades of studio wizardry, the evolution of independent music culture and the creep of AI, and what it takes to help artists capture that special something. It’s a fun deep dive with one of the quiet giants of alternative music, and probably my single favorite character to emerge from the movie Hype! * * * * PLEASE FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Website: https://www.TheCApod.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheCApod/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CreativeAsylumCA/ Hosted on Acast.
