— Bio
Fifteen years behind the console, chasing the take that makes the room go quiet.
Lucas Petrucci has spent 15 years in the industry. He started as an intern at Studio West in San Diego before going freelance through rooms like Rarefied, Satellite, and MAPS, and eventually landed as lead engineer at Rhythm & Resin.
Along the way he's tracked, mixed, or mastered for artists including Pearl, Dyve, ECHLO, Jonathon Jones of Waking Ashland, We The Commas Live Sessions, Demian Arriaga, Stuart Whitworth, and Merlo Podlewski of Jack Johnson. His work centers on emotional clarity: songs that arrive intact, mixes that don't fight the room, masters that translate from car stereo to streaming to cinema.
