01 / About
Music from every side of the glass.
Eric Jarvis is a Houston producer, mixer, multi-instrumentalist, and lifelong performer whose work spans hundreds of recordings with artists from Texas and beyond.
His perspective comes from doing the work in multiple roles: shaping arrangements, helping artists find the center of a song, building performances, mixing recordings, and contributing as a session musician.
Eric trained under GRAMMY-winning engineer and producer Dave McNair, collaborated extensively with SugarHill Studios producer and engineer Dan Workman, and worked on projects with the late Joe Hardy of Ardent Studios.
Production is collaboration
