About

Joel Arnow

Meet Joel.

I come to making records from the perspective of a musician first and foremost. After studying music at New England Conservatory of Music, I spent over a decade performing and touring and was given the opportunity to work with some truly extraordinary artists.

During this period, I recorded as a musician but began to find an interest in recording and production which has been the focus of my professional life ever since. Making records is what I love to do and it has allowed me to work and collaborate with some truly incredible musicians over the years.

My approach to music is simple: I always listen and support the song or composition. And of course, make it feel good!
