Gregory Galfo records audio for musicians and indie bands. He produces and manages indie music artists, does live sound, mixing, mastering, licenses and publishes music, and is the executive producer for Anvil Records.
Mr. Galfo also teaches audio recording and photography.
He became interested in audio recording at the age of 15 after learning how to solder and build electronic kits from his brother, Chris. He began recording on a “reel to reel” tape deck and soon after, he learned how to mix using a 4-channel mixer; during that same time period he learned the fundamentals of photography (also from his brother) and built a home darkroom.
He picked up the acoustic guitar at the age of 17 studying under his mentor (and roommate), guitarist/poet, Rafael Lorenzo, in Williamsburg, Virginia. Although he made his living for the next few decades with his talent as a photographer, he never lost his love for recording audio and playing music.
In 1997, he moved away from photography to manage a large music store in South Florida. Galfo began playing multiple instruments and developing his vocal style. He also devoted his spare time to studying live sound reinforcement, advanced recording techniques, artist management, and music marketing.
In 2004, he was noticed by Virginia Wagner, a critically acclaimed singer-songwriter from Greenwich Village, New York. He began managing Wagner's music, and was chosen by Anvil Records to be the Executive Producer on her 2007 release, Darkness Visible. Galfo managed the Darkness Visible tour and was subsequently chosen for the position of Producer/Engineer by Anvil.
He is currently producing, recording, mixing, and mastering Anvil Records artists, indie artists, solo musicians, and bands. He enjoys working with many styles of music, including but not limited to, singer/songwriter, acoustic, classical, jazz, rock, metal, and alternative. Galfo also records and engineers live sound, spoken word, concerts, music festivals, and recitals on location, on university campuses and in places of worship.
He continues working on a collection of Wagner's back catalog, his own back catalog, publishing, and pursuing licensing opportunities for Queen of Swords Music (Wagner's [BMI] publishing company), and Majestic Heart Music Publishing (his [ASCAP] publishing company).
"It's a balancing act," says Galfo. "Keeping up my enthusiasm in each area gives me the amount of drive that I need to go forward and be productive."
