Show Notes

Known for her work with bands like Panic! at the Disco, Dua Lipa and Fall Out Boy, Suzy Shinn is an established talent in the world of pop- and alt-rock song production. Her most recent project has been producing Weezer’s latest metal-inspired album, "Van Weezer." She discusses her favorite parts of working in music, what’s in the room for a great recording session and her own influences and inspiration.
