Hi, I’m Matt Baden, though I often perform as Warren Russell.

I design and operate rigs for live shows, guide tracks from recording to mix, and bring energy to major tours and festivals. I thrive in fast-paced environments and love collaborating with artists to shape performances from tracking to the final release.…Hi, I’m Matt Baden, though I often perform as Warren Russell.
