"details": "Tim Palmer is a renowned producer and mixer with an extensive career spanning multiple decades, working with iconic artists such as Robert Plant, David Bowie, Tears for Fears, Ozzy Osbourne, The Goo Goo Dolls, and U2. Most recently, his work on The Psychedelic Furs’ latest album contributed to a remarkable milestone—UK Top Ten albums across five consecutive decades.\r\rA key highlight of Tim’s career is mixing Ten by Pearl Jam, one of the 50 best-selling albums of all time, which was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2021. He also received a Grammy nomination in 2001 for his work on U2’s All That You Can’t Leave Behind, which won the Grammy for Best Rock Album. That same record featured the Grammy-winning tracks Stuck in a Moment and Elevation, both mixed by Tim.\r\rNow based in Austin, Texas, Tim continues to collaborate with artists including Tears for Fears, Jason Mraz, Blue October, The Polyphonic Spree, H.I.M., and The Psychedelic Furs. In 2014, he mixed Billy Childs’ Map to the Treasure, an album that received three Grammy nominations.\r\rIn recent years, Tim has worked alongside Grammy-winning producer Larry Klein, mixing projects for Kandace Springs, Lang Lang, Lizz Wright, Luciana Souza, and two multi-artist jazz tributes to Charlie Parker and Jacques Brel. He also co-produced Ville Valo’s (VV) latest album, which debuted at #4 in Germany, and mixed The Tipping Point by Tears for Fears, which reached #8 on the Billboard 200.\r\rBeyond the studio, Tim has served two terms as a Recording Academy Trustee and sits on the advisory board of Sonic Guild (formerly Black Fret), an Austin-based nonprofit supporting local musicians. Over the past four years, Sonic Guild has provided more than $3.5 million in grants and performance payments to Austin’s vibrant music community.",
