In the Ears of the Artist: Andrew “Slipper” Brown – Monitor Engineer for Lights
In this episode, I sit down with Andrew “Slipper” Brown, the monitor engineer responsible for keeping Lights locked in and performing at her best night after night. From crafting the perfect in-ear mix to managing on-stage communication and last-minute curveballs, Slipper gives us an inside look at the world of monitor engineering where precision, speed, and trust are everything.
We dive into how he builds an environment where the artist can thrive, how he handles high-pressure situations in real time, and the relationship between artist and monitor engineer that’s crucial for a flawless performance. Slipper also shares his personal journey into touring, what it’s like working in pop music, and the tech and techniques he leans on to get the job done.
If you’ve ever wondered what goes into keeping the artist comfortable and confident on stage this conversation is a masterclass in what happens behind the curtain.
