   About Forgiveness
Forgiveness is a destination studio specializing in creating distinctive recordings. We have built records from the ground up for artists from all over; Los Angeles, New York, Paris, Minneapolis, London, Boston, Atlanta, San Fran, Asheville, Seattle, New Orleans, even Salt Lake City. We believe the song comes first. Using the best of vintage and modern tools, we provide production, engineering, and mixing services for independent artists. Forgiveness is the private studio of Evan Brubaker (check out the About Forgiveness Blog for more info).

"Evan is an extraordinary producer. He doesn't simply add accompaniment to songs and press record, he distills what it is that makes an artist unique. He possesses an almost unnerving ability to see what others cannot. He *will* make you a better artist."
- Edie Carey

__________________________________

"Even under the best circumstances, making a record isn't easy; trying to find your "sound", figuring out if a take is "good enough", and making decisions while reeling from all the surprises. All the contingencies can send you over budget and make you wish you'd never even started.

Or you can work with Evan and avoid all that crap. It's your choice."
- Holly Figueroa O'Reilly

__________________________________

"I literally got more done with Evan in five days than I have in five years. He not only has the crucial musical vision to make your music the best it can be, but also (and this cannot be underestimated) the kick-ass organization and drive to get stuff DONE. I was amazed to see someone else so dedicated and single-minded about my project. He is not just playing around when he agrees to work with you...there is a commitment and focus that is extraordinary and really rare.

If you're going to put music out into the world, working with Evan is one of the biggest favors you can do for yourself. I am grateful every day that I "found Forgiveness". :)"

Some of my favorite records ever were recorded by Evan Brubaker. And I listen to a lot of freakin' records.
MJ Bishop

Evan - how fortuitous that I hear from you as I ponder, wonder and waffle about doing my next CD and how, after two discs, no one has been able to capture my voice...

Hope to meet you around town soon!

Thank you :)

Cheers,
