Andy Schichter is a 6x WCMA-nominated producer and audio engineer based in Vancouver, BC, operating out of Park Sound Studio. His traditional and practical studio experience, meticulous attention to detail, and passion for collaboration have built him a career alongside influential Canadian and international artists. Andy’s productions have been featured in Rolling Stone, on CBC Radio, Sirius XM, and numerous Spotify and Apple Music Editorial playlists. He recently produced Juno-nominated Rare Americans’ latest album RA4: The Human Animal, featuring the single ‘Stupid Heart’ (#22 Canadian Alternative Radio). Most recently, his work with KAY BRETTE, Summer's Brother, and Anna Katarina earned Producer and Audio Engineer nominations at the 2022, 2023, 2024 2025 and 2026 Western Canadian Music Awards.

Andy’s early career began with an apprenticeship under Grammy Award-nominated producer Tucker Martine, where he worked on projects such as The Decemberists’ The King is Dead (#1 US Billboard 200) and Beth Orton’s Sugaring Season (#26 UK Albums Chart). Through this mentorship and the accumulation of his own projects, Andy developed a distinctive style blending vintage gear with modern production techniques. This approach has allowed him to work within a diverse range of genres and styles, including recent projects alongside Rare Americans, Sleepy Gonzales, Jack Botts, and Rumour Mill.

As a teenager in Waterloo, ON, Andy became fixated on the science behind recording and began uncovering the seemingly infinite methods of capturing and twisting sound. This fascination with the finer details of music has remained integral to his process and, blended with his patience and eagerness to collaborate, has allowed artists to feel a sense of trust and security in Andy’s presence. This special, ubiquitous feeling cannot be forced in a studio setting, though it permits unhindered expression and experimentation when it is present.

Andy is also a prolific mixing engineer and is continually relied upon by national and international artists to finish their artistic vision. He approaches each project determined to listen to what the artist sees and hears before ever touching a knob. His patience and consideration of an artist’s vision are always present as he strives to create, together, the unique colour palette needed for each project’s landscape.

In addition to his career as a producer and engineer, Andy worked closely with established and rising stars in their career development through management, tour booking, and grant writing. Andy has written numerous successful FACTOR, Creative BC, Music BC, and Canada Council for the Arts grants. He also sits on the board of jurors for FACTOR, Music BC, the WCMAs, and the JUNOs.

Founding member of the experimental indie rock band Concrete Vehicles, Hudson Schelesny joined Park Sound Studio in Summer 2023. Since then, he has become an essential part of the studio’s day-to-day creative process, working closely with Andy on sessions for a growing community of Vancouver artists.

Hudson brings a calm, thoughtful presence to the room, combining technical precision with strong musical instincts and an artist-first approach. Whether he’s setting up sessions, assisting with tracking, editing performances, or offering creative input, he helps keep the studio moving smoothly while making artists feel comfortable and supported.

Hudson has also produced and engineered some of Vancouver’s most exciting up-and-coming artists, including Cherry Pick, Scarlet Fever, Avery Sloane, and Dour. His own work with Concrete Vehicles gives him an artist’s perspective in the studio, making him a trusted part of the creative process from setup to final take.
