Chris Hoffman 

Audio Engineer & Music Producer

About me

Loving music has been a constant in my life; a joy which has and inspired me to set out and create a career as an Audio Engineer. Studying at Recording Connections under mentor Bruce Kirby of Boho Digitalia, I learned the ins and outs of running a music studio thru specialized, one-on-one training. I also studied Jazz guitar at the University of Utah before completing an Associate of Science at Salt Lake Community College. I fully understand the complexities of music theory as well as being a proficient vocalist and Jazz trained guitarist. As a singer song writer in my personal time I write and record tons of music most recently releasing single Legs, and EP Sunbound. With my music theory training and experience writing music I am sure to answer any question you throw at me!
