Based in Colorado, just like PME Records, Craig Patterson has been at the helm of PME Records since its inception in 1990. He has been a professional audio engineer since his first paying studio gig at the age of eleven, making his music career almost fifty years long.

By the time he studied engineering under Bill Porter (Elvis Presley's engineer), he already had a decade of analog tape experience, giving him a big head start. A couple of decades after were spent on the road with various groups, playing keyboards and running FOH sound as opportunities in every genre came up, until finally the studio would keep him home most of the year.

Some of the hundreds of artists Craig has worked with include:

John Oates
