Would you ever consider letting someone right out of college work with you? … Or for you? Whatever it takes to get close to the producing scene.

At this time in my life, I can’t really justify paying an assistant, so I’ve actually only worked with people in college or of college age, in an intern situation.

My first intern was Jesse Lauter, who has done a ton of great work since. He produced the first Low Anthem record, and just finished engineering the second. Right now he’s working with dudes from Elvis Perkins’ band. Check him out: http://www.jesselauter.com/News.html

Mike Duncan is currently interning for me half my days. He has a totally sick rock news website that he runs called Rock Edition: http://www.rockedition.com/ Also, he’s Jenny Owen Youngs’ favorite person alive ever.

Ask me anything
