Every great journey has a soundtrack. For Ted, it all started with a single beat—the iconic opening drums of Rush’s "Tom Sawyer." That spark ignited a lifelong obsession with music, driving him to master the drums and spend years performing across New York’s diverse music scene, laying down grooves in everything from high-energy funk to soulful country.

​

But as any performer knows, playing a great show is only half the equation. Standing on stage, Ted realized something crucial: incredible music often gets lost without an engineer who truly understands how sound feels—both for the crowd in the front row and the musicians under the lights. He knew he could bridge that gap.

​

Over the past decade, Ted has transitioned from behind the drum kit to behind the soundboard, bringing a musician’s ear and a craftsman’s precision to every stage. He has mixed sound and stage managed for hundreds of regional and national acts—including The Lords of 52nd Street, Sydney Irving, and LoCash—earning a reputation for flawless production.

​

Whether he’s engineering a massive outdoor concert or mixing for an intimate corporate gathering, Ted’s philosophy remains simple: exceptional sound and lighting aren't an accident. They are the result of meticulous preparation, high-end gear, and a deep respect for the art of live performance.
