Client Testimonials — See What Mark's Clients Are SayingMark Needham has been working in the music business for over 35 years and has developed long lasting, professional relationships with his clients. We've asked a few of Mark's clients to share their experience working with Mark... Scott Austin
A&R Executive, Maverick Records Mark (Needham) is a great guy and a great mixer. Absolutely a top engineer that should be on everyone's go-to list!
David Benveniste (Beno)
CEO Velvet Hammer Music/Columbia; CEO StreetWise Concepts & Culture; Manager, System of a Down & The Deftones Aside from being an absolute pleasure to work with, Mark's commitment to 'getting it right' and not stopping until we do is one of the many attributes he possesses. He's one of those guys that is pure in talent, pure in intention. I love that.
Michael Caplan
President One Haven Music; Senior Vice President, A&R, Sony Music Label Group U.S. Mark is just the man.
He can do any kind of project any way you want it. Period. I am so thankful I have found this guy. Robert Cray
Singer, musician and composer Mark Needham is like the third producer. Jim and I would sit there and we'd come up with ideas, but Mark would translate everything. And then we would let Mark have free reign on what he wanted to do with stuff, most all the time, in the sense of mixing things together.
Mick Fleetwood
Co-Founder, Fleetwood Mac I was first introduced to Mark Needham through Lindsey Buckingham over five years ago. Immediately I became aware of Mark's deep knowledge as an engineer, but even more important, his mixing and producing skills.
As an artist you can sometimes be too close to your music to make the right decision... Mark (Needham) is a great sounding board for that process. Most of all, I found Mark Needham to be an up front guy who is never afraid to give his honest opinion. For me, this is an incredible asset. Allison Hagendorf
A&R Executive, Epic Records Besides being a great talent, Mark is an absolute pleasure to work with.
He becomes part of the team and wants everything to come out right just as much as you do. Mark tries to capture the artist's vision and helps bring it to fruition. Courtney Hard
Senior Manager, Artist & Repertoire, Sony BMG Music Entertainment (Australia) PTY Limited Mark is one of the best Mix Engineers in the music industry and he is so efficient and an absolute pleasure to work with — he makes my job
enjoyable. Michael Howe
A&R Executive, Downtown Records Aside from being a great guy, Mark is a total pro who consistently works magic behind the board.
Mark is able to translate virtually any idea or suggestion quickly and effectively—anytime he's available for one of my artists, I use him. He's top notch. Chris Isaak
Singer, musician, composer, actor and producer He (Mark Needham) knows all the gear; he is also very up to date on the new tech stuff as it develops.
If I didn't think he (Mark Needham) was damn good I wouldn't still be working alongside him in a studio. I can honestly say he (Mark Needham) always makes whatever you started out with, sound better than you hoped (it would sound). Daniel J. Levitin, Ph.D.
Author of "This Is Your Brain on Music" I've known Mark for 25 years as engineer, mixer, producer, and friend.
Mark is both patient and practical. Patient enough to let musicians and producers experiment and explore in the studio, practical enough to know how to reign them in to keep things under budget. He's supportive, creative, and has a musician's ear for detail. Plus he makes rockin' punchy mixes! Angelo Montrone
Director of A&R, Or Music We had a complex project with up to 100 tracks per song. Mark is so fast he had the first three songs mixed before he even knew the band's name! More importantly, we tried several 'name' mix engineers, but only Mark was able to instinctively capture the SOUND we wanted. Great job!
John Rubeli
President, Chop Shop Records; VP of A&R, Atlantic Records Mark has the unique ability to enter into the record making process that fulfills multiple needs and provides the answer to a lot of questions.
He (Mark Needham) gets the job done. Mark is a terrific person with a tremendous work ethic. Jeff Saltzman
Producer, The Killers He (Mark Needham) gets great sounds in a fraction of the time it takes anyone else.
Justin Tricomi
The Republic Tigers Mark Needham is a genius.
Adam Tymn
VAUX Mark is a hard working professional. His vast experience and creativity allowed us to record a great song!
Ronnie Vannucci
The Killers Never have I seen a Mix Engineer (like Mark) 'play' the console just as passionately as a musician plays an instrument. Mark Needham is an audio wizard!
Nate Yetton
A&R Executive, EMI Music, Sparrow/Forefront/ Credential Recordings Mark Needham is simply a pleasure to work with. Skillfully, he finds the right mix of commerciality and credibility that's to the liking of both consumers and critics. Songs end up sounding even more musical and dynamic when he's finished with them. That's truly all that I can ask for.
Pete Yorn
Singer, musician and composer ...I can't stress enough how amazing Mark (Needham) is to work with.
