After a career in engineering and IT and a lifelong hobby of music, it was time for Doug to follow his dreams and open Split Willow Studio. He has always enjoyed the balance of the physics of sound and the creativity of music. He played trumpet since elementary school and bass over the past 25 years. Doug currently plays bass on the worship team, runs live sound at various venues, and plays bass in a three-piece band. He has been recording, mixing, and mastering music over the past 20 years.

Doug built his second recording studio in 2020-2022. He has recorded many different genres from singer songwriters to full bands. He has recorded spoken word and restored vintage tapes to digital media.

Contact him today for any of your recording, mixing, mastering, and audio restoration needs.

Doug and his wife live on her childhood farmland in Sartell, Minnesota and enjoy the split willows overlooking the Mississippi River.
