Harry Carter
(Harry played at the final Little Bytham Music Festival in 2014, with For Reasons To Stay. He has also provided us with sound engineering skills, masterminding our Acoustic Stage in 2016)
Harry is a grade 8 classical guitarist and sound engineer, he has grown up and developed in the music. Having been in bands ranging from modern rock to classical quartets he knows exactly what the band want.
Although only young he isn’t all that new to the business having been working in technical theatre for the last 5 years. His knowledge of the equipment and abilities to mix have been learned, not taught, through years of experimenting with sounds and effects to perfect the live and recorded music.
Harry first learned his trade through doing minor jobs in theatres such as miking up drums, amps and ensuring that wireless mikes were correctly programmed.
In more recent times Harry works in several theatres, with many organisations, and having worked with a total of over 100 bands in the last 2 years alone, he must be doing something right!
To contact Harry simply pop him an email.
