Everett Moran
Owner/Engineer

Following work on the road with the Kenny Loggins Band, The Bus Boys, and the Stanley Clarke-George Duke Project, Everett�s professional recording career began in Los Angeles in 1982, where he worked as an assistant, first at the Record Plant then at Record One. Following a move to Denver and a stint as Operations Manager and Concert Director for Swallow Hill Music Association, he returned to recording, co-producing two records for John William Davis, as well as a number of jazz projects, including a series of improvisational sessions for pianist & composer, David Cieri and his trio, a portion of which can be heard in Ken Burns� �Vietnam� documentary. A call from Willis Alan Ramsey in 2005 led him to Wimberley, Texas to record overdubs and rough mixes for an upcoming release, Gentilly. He worked with Ramsey off and on until 2007, then went on the road to mix front of house for the Young Dubliners. In 2008, he moved to Port Townsend, Washington and focused on creating a state of the art, destination recording studio. In 2016, he moved into the former power plant at Fort Worden that would become Rainshadow Recording.

Everett has recorded and/or produced mostly acoustic-based artists, including Dejah Leger, John William Davis, Willis Alan Ramsey, Hot Club Sandwich, Lebedik Yankee, John �Greyhound� Maxwell, Matt Sircely, Rachel Garcia & Thu Tran, aka The Singer & the Songwriter, Sperry Hunt and Red Dirt Rangers.
