The Music Producers Guild hosted their 7th Annual Awards ceremony at the Park Plaza Riverbank Hotel in London. With a host of industry stalwarts, grammy-award winning producers, and engineers in attendance, the show also featured live performances from top producer and former Eurythmics star Dave Stewart who picked up the MPG’s 'Outstanding Contribution to UK Music Award'.
Austrian microphone manufacturers LEWITT Audio in conjunction with UK and Eire distributors John Hornby Skewes & Co. Ltd., were proud to sponsor the ‘International Producer of the Year Award’ to a shortlist that included Dan Auerbach, Pharrell Williams, and T-Bone Burnet. The award was presented to Dave Arnold on behalf of Dan Auerbach, who was unfortunately unable to attend, by compere Tom Robinson and JHS executive director of sales and marketing Alan Smith.
“It was a privilege to represent JHS and Lewitt Audio as a sponsor of the MPG awards,” said Alan Smith, "particularly to sponsor, and present, such a prestigious award as International Producer Of The Year.”
Ohio-born Dan Auerbach, probably best known for his work as guitarist/producer with the band The Black Keys, has also worked as producer for Lana Del Ray, Dr John, Michael Kiwanuka, Hacienda, and Ray LaMontagne.
Lewitt Audio’s head of sales Mike van der Logt said "It was an honor to attend the MPG awards with so many great producers and audio professionals present. Handing over an award for the best international producer confirms our interest in the creative process of recording. It further underlines our involvement of providing high quality microphones that are Unaltered, Authentic and Memorable”
