About

linktr.ee/tomellishall

Tom is known for combining a musician’s ear with meticulous technical detail. His recent mastering projects include Jordan Rakei, Kelli-Leigh, Kristen Hersh and Dexys, alongside remastering work for Girls Aloud and Cass McCombs. He has also been integral to projects for The Beatles, Elton John and The Sex Pistols, plus many more legacy acts.

Tom’s path began as a bassist, later moving into the studio to collaborate with artists such as Adam Levine, Greg Alexander and The Overtones. Joining Abbey Road in 2016 as an assistant engineer, he soon made the move into the mastering team. With a particular appreciation for the depth and character of analogue workflows, Tom blends classic techniques with modern precision to create masters that bring out the full clarity, energy and emotion in every record.

I am a results-driven audio production engineer with extensive experience in mastering, post-production, editing, and restoration, built through years of work across major and independent projects at Abbey Road Studios. I am skilled in stereo and stem mastering, Dolby Atmos, noise reduction, cleanup, and industry-standard delivery using Pro Tools, WavLab Pro, Cedar and Izotope RX. I have a strong background in managing high-volume workflows, maintaining technical consistency, and supporting creative teams with clear communication and constructive feedback.

I am known for precision, calm problem-solving under pressure, and a collaborative, listener-focused approach to audio production.
