Whatsup yall! My name is Keaton Thandi and I am a multi instrumentalist and producer with more than 18 years of recording experience. I am the touring percussionist/drummer for Michael Glabicki (Rusted Root) and the touring keyboardist and vocalist for Lady Wray as well as many other associated acts. My services include drum recording, percussion recording, keyboard recording, sound design, production, and mixing. My goal is always to enhance the magic that is the song. Whether I'm picking and tuning a snare drum, miking up a vintage keyboard, designing synth patches, analog mixing, or layering up a percussion village, the goal and purpose is always to support and enhance the song.

My process includes working closely with you to get to the essence of the song, and then carefully supporting that with arranging, sound design, textures and performance. I have played on, produced and mixed an eclectic variety of music and love it all! I have a plethora of percussion instruments I've collected in my time touring around the world. From tabla and dohl to conga and timbau and everything in between including vibraphone. I have analog and digital workflows available as well as tape options. I look forward to hearing what you're working on and would love to opportunity to collaborate! Much love, Keaton Thandi.
