In addition to his own discography, Joel Plaskett’s producer credits include work from Mo Kenney and Séan McCann. “Producing my own music is partly what lead me to want to work with other people,” says Plaskett, who opened his New Scotland studio in Dartmouth in 2013. “I’ll stumble upon something when I’m working on someone else’s record, and I’m like, ‘Cool, I’m gonna remember that when I go make my own.’” And it goes both ways. “I’m learning so much every time I go into the studio to start on a record, because a method that worked once doesn’t always work the next time.”
