Matt Boudreau is an audio engineer and the creator and host of the Working Class Audio podcast. Matt’s early career as a drummer introduced him to the music industry while touring and recording, winning and losing record deals, and learning how records were made on a large scale. In 1994, Matt traded drumsticks for faders when a passion for audio production became his focus. Since then Matt has experienced the ups and downs of studio ownership and freelance recording, which ultimately led to the creation of the Working Class Audio podcast in 2014.
