About

Hi, I’m Eric Thompson. I’m a dynamic audio engineer with over 20 years of hands-on experience across live production, studio production, and audio post for video. I thrive on shaping sound that connects with audiences—from intimate clubs to stadium stages—while keeping workflows smooth and collaborative.

When I’m not in the studio or on tour, I enjoy crafting podcast productions and coordinating complex soundscapes for live events, always aiming for clarity, impact, and musicality in every project.
