Stevin McNamara
Stevin McNamara has been playing and recording music for over 40 years.
He is in the unique position of being an accomplished
Composer/Musician and a Recording Engineer.

Born in South Africa, Stevin started learning piano and guitar at the age
of seven. He played solo and in bands all the way through high school.
At the age of twenty one, Stevin moved to the United States, where he
had more formal training at Berklee College of Music in Boston Mass.
He has been involved in music ever since.
Although Stevin grew up with the sounds of African Music, he also
discovered Indian Music in the early seventies and studied the Sitar with
Ram Chakravarty of Benares who was then professor of music at
Wesleyan College in Connecticut.
This diverse exposure to such a broad spectrum of music, ranging from
World to Pop has contributed to the unique musical style he has
developed over the years.
In the late seventies, after spending considerable time as a session
musician in recording studios, Stevin became fascinated with what was
happening on the "other side of the glass", namely the recording process
itself. This passion developed into a highly successful career as an audio
engineer.
He has worked in the fields of Popular music World, Folk, Jazz, Film and
Television in top studios in South Africa, England, and the United States,
He is perfectly at home in any State of the Art recording facility, or Live
Sound scenario, even at Stadium Concert level. He is qualified to teach
Audio engineering at College level.
Stevin has worked with well- known producers such as Robert John "Mutt"
Lange and a huge spectrum of recording artists (see Artist List - www.yogitar.com)
- from Paul Winter to Tina Turner- from Bryan Adams to Zakir Hussein.
He now lives In Ashland Oregon where he spends his time doing
