  • Joel-Plaskett-Interview
    HHB Communications Canada Limited In conversation with Joel Plaskett anada has produced some of the world’s most enduring songwriters Cand Joel Plaskett is hailed as one of the best. With countless awards, thousands of tour dates and numerous recording and producing projects under his belt, Plaskett remains one of the most innovative and prolific artists on the scene today. Inspired by a high demand for his ears as a producer, Joel rang in 2013 with the completion and launch of his new recording studio, New Scotland Yard. Since the opening, Joel has put his mark on the recordings of Sarah Slean, Al Tuck, David Myles, Steve Poltz, and most recently, buzz act Mo Kenney. In 2014, he continues to amass production credits with several projects already on the schedule – including a new record of his own. Congrats on your recent ECMA nomination for Producer of the Year!! Are you excited about being nominated? Thanks! Yeah, I'm super excited. I've been doing more and more producing and it's nice to get a nod in that arena. Although I still feel like I have a lot to learn. You are not only a producer but also celebrated live artist as well. Is it hard to find a balance between being on the road and in the studio? They are two different worlds. I built New Scotland Yard so I could have place to work from that is close to home when I'm not touring. Going elsewhere to make records involved me being away for too long. My family is really important to me and although I'm a workaholic.
