With a record three Album of the Year nominations at this year’s Grammy Awards, mastering engineer Emily Lazar is at the forefront of her profession.
“I guess you could say I was born to be a mastering engineer,” laughs Emily Lazar.
“I grew up in a very musical house. My mom was a guitar teacher and she taught from home, so I had that great opportunity of sitting in on all of her lessons. And then my dad was very interested in finding cool recordings and having interesting equipment. I have vivid memories of him throwing a pair of amazing headphones on me and saying, ‘Oh, listen to the bass in this recording. This is cool.’ Just even listening to specific instruments, I think, is a way of listening that most people don’t come to until later, when they’re really delving into music and finding themselves.”
