About Me.
Hello! My name is Bradley Leister and I am an audiophile.I have been a lover of music my whole life and started playing instruments at the age of 13. Since then, I have been in many bands playing in professional circuits, sharing the stage with bands such as The Movement, Tribal Seeds, Barrington Levy, and Stephen Marley. In the past three years, I have migrated from the stage to booths and studios. I have discovered that my true love of music comes from the discovery and building process. I am currently employed and subcontracted as a live sound engineer and I have experience working clubs and festivals as well as larger venues such as The Bluebird Theatre and Red Rocks in Denver. I love working with different bands all the time, although I am eagerly trying to seek out jobs in the film and video game industries. I graduated Full Sail University at the end of September, 2023 with a bachelor's of science degree in Music Production. Working on this degree has prepared me to enter the film and video game industries.
