Randy Staub is one of the most prolific rock mixers of the last decade. Staub has worked with some of the largest names in music, including artists such as Nickelback, Bon Jovi, U2, Cher, Celine Dion, Avril Lavigne, Iggy Pop and many others. He’s been nominated for the JUNO Award for Recording Engineer of the Year nine times, winning in 2002 for his work with Nickelback on the tracks “How You Remind Me” and “Too Bad.” Staub got his start when he was offered a job at A&M studios in Los Angeles, but being Canadian, he had to wait for his immigration papers to arrive. As he waited, producer Bob Rock offered Staub a job engineering a project he was working on, and then asked Staub to come work with him full-time at his Vancouver studio. Staub declined, as he was already scheduled to go to LA., but Rock persisted and finally Staub conceded forming the Rock/Staub duo which led to a long string of rock masterworks, including Metallica’s self-titled album. Staub still lives and works out of Vancouver and continues to work with emerging and legendary artists such as Evanescence and the reformed Alice In Chains.
