Artist History His entry into MP3.com is his beautiful inspirational self-penned single of La Señora de Guadalupe to commemorate the canonization of Juan Diego in Mexico City on July 31, 2002---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don is a multi-talented individual who does it all: producer-songwriter-musician-arranger-singer-recording engineer-mixer and miniature artist-photographer combined. Type in don meehan on a search engine like Google and up comes 30 records released in the past several years which Don has either recorded, mixed, mastered or was an artist. These credits list the names of the big name star producers, performers, musicians, arrangers and conductors Don has worked with. He has engineered hits for many of the stars, including Barbra Streisand, Bob Dylan and the Manhattans. Between these three artists he has garnered at least 20 Gold and Platinum awards as an engineer. Don recorded, mixed and mastered the Bob Dylan song, Hurricane, for the title song of the recent Denzel Washington movie of the same name. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roughmix Don was the name given him during recording sessions of the E Street Band, Bruce Springsteen and Southside Johnny. Guitarist-producer-actor, Miami Steve Van Zandt, who plays Jersey mobster Silvio Dante in the hit series, The Sopranos, hung the name on Don because of his uncanny ability in the studio to quickly make a rough mix of a multi-track recording sound like a finished master. The name has stuck with Don. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------As a singing artist Don has done many single recordings on RCA Victor, Columbia and Epic and an album on Folkways-Smithsonian, entitled The Song and Dance Man. With his strong desire to take on unique challenges and do off the wall projects he has established a couple of world records. One is the recording of Silent Night, featured here on MP3.com, as a bonus track with the single release of La Señora de Guadalupe. Don recorded himself singing 101 overdubbed voices. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Another world record is an astounding miniature Austrian crystal chandelier made by Don in 1/12th scale only 4 ½ inches tall with 32 working candles (electric lights). 68 tiny wires are hidden and soldered inside. His peers claim that there is not another one like it in the world. As a miniature artist Don has established a worldwide reputation making tiny crystal and brass chandeliers for private collectors and several museums. He also teaches photography workshops nationwide and does photography for an American and a European (based in England) miniatures magazines. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- His vocal talents are also unique, inasmuch as he has been singing since the age of six. At that time could sing over 50 popular songs, and had his own program on the local radio station in Beaumont, Texas, where his country roots spring from. In his teens he played guitar and sang with all the country bands in the area and played bass with the college dance band. After high school he went on the road and did a short stint on the Louisiana Hayride show in Shreveport until he was drafted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After the Army, Don studied audio, did demos for writers and publishers in New York, and built his first home multi-track studio. This knowledge and experience landed him a job at the United Nations recording department, which then led to the Columbia Records job. He immediately became the star rock engineer there. He also continued playing his music, writing songs, articles, books and screen plays, singing studio group backup, TV commercials, recording and raising 6 kids. Singing and playing on the road is not very good when there are that many mouths to feed, so he kept his day job, and was at Columbia Records (purchased by Sony in 1988) for many years. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don maintains his 16 track and digital home audio and video studio in Carmel, Indiana (northern suburb of Indianapolis), and also hangs his many hats at Azmyth Recording Studio there, where Gold and Platinum awards line the wall. Aspiring local bands and artists in the Indianapolis area are fortunate to have someone with the knowledge, talents and experience of Don Meehan there to guide them to stardom. He has recently activated his Azmyth record label.
