George does excellent work, very professional and experienced cat.

Over the 27 years I have known George we constantly call him first when we need an engineer either in the studio or on tour. He steps up and takes on any extra responsibilities my husband, Todd Rundgren, and I throw at him, including Road and Production management. We rely heavily on George's talents and have NEVER had a bad day with George. He is very personable and easy to work with. I know many celebrity musicians who say the same. 
George Cowan is a rare gem and we are lucky to be able to hire him for every project he is available for.

I can recommend George Cowan without hesitation. He is a musically brilliant engineer and great to work with. There is no substitute for the level and value of knowledge, experience and ablility that George brings to the table. He is as good as it gets.

I worked with George Cowan several times, touring with Todd Rundgren's band. George is a consummate professional, both as a live sound mixer and a tour manager. He performed both jobs concurrently, overseeing the transportation, hotel bookings, stage design, equipment maintenance and 
personal needs of the band and crew, which totaled 12 to 15 people. In 
addition, his sound mixing was impeccable, and he proved to be an 
quick, instinctive problem solver. He was knowledgeable, experienced and 
supportive to the band, crew and venue staffs, maintaining a calm, respectful demeanor and a great sense of humor.

George is the very best - in this rarified business. 
He is ethical (almost) to a fault, expert, thoughtful-just plain good at what he does.

It's never A MAJOR PRODUCTION when dealing with this long vetted, highly skilled and creative industry professional... Whatever the task is, George will move through it seamlessly and with great results.

George is a fantastic sound engineer and always at the top of my list when looking for someone to mix one of my artists. Not only will George get the best mix out of any situation he's a great guy and gets along with everyone. 

If George is available give him a chance to mix your act.

I can not recommend George Cowan more highly. I met him in 1980 when I went to work for Todd Rundgren, George is an accomplished recording and FOH engineer and one of the very best that I have ever worked with. I also worked with George at Bearsville Studios during the 1980's. He has an amazing ear, technical skills, excellent work ethic and is a pleasure to work and tour with.

George worked with my late husband Mick Ronson in Bearsville studios. Mick was always very happy working with George. 
Another friend of mine, Todd Rundren, also works with George when he tour and sounds fantastic. 
On a personal note I have known George and his family for many years and a more honest upright talented man you would be hard to find. He is reliable, likable and a lot of fun I highly recommend him in his line of work in the studio or out on tour.

George is one of those rare people who allows employers and colleagues to sleep soundly. His skills and knowledge are profound. And many might think that alone is a good reason to hire him. But, I have found that what makes George a rare gem is his passion for the work and self-motivation to do the best job possible. I have seen him, time and time again, go the extra mile to make a good job turn into an excellant job. I have never hesitated to recommend George for a gig of any scale or complexity. He is truly a pleasure to work with.

George Cowan is one of the best consultants we've ever hired. This is due to his high quality work ethics and "Go Getter" attitude. Once his mind is made up, he will not stop until he has accomplished his task. 
Now a days, it hard to find reliable, respectful vendors who have your best intrest at hand. We hire George frequently as an IT Consultant and to perform Voice Over's for our Audio needs. 
Anyone who hires George will not be disappointed. I highly reccommend him due to his creativeness, dedication and honesty. As we always say, "You get what you pay for" and with George, it's "And then some".

I've known George since 1986 when we worked together at Bearsville Studios, a then recording facility in Bearsville,NY. He was a major (no inferrence intended) asset to the technical department of which I was chief. I've always known him to be a a knowlegeable and conscientious proponent of the professional audio world and he invariably put his duties and aspirations at the forefront, even when the ceiling was falling down on him - literally. That he is highly regarded in our industry as a recording / live mix engineer is no surprise to me. He has my respect, and certainly my endorsement.

George Cowan is truly an "A List" engineer who's talents and experience are an actual godsend for an audio project. I found that all facets of recording, mixing, engineering and reproduction were in such good and capable hands that we could completely focus on the creative challenges without ever having to be distracted by technical issues. In addition to George's technical expertise, his own musicality and creative sense of adventure gave an added dimension and depth to our project. He made the experience 100 times more sonically special than we had envisioned and probably 1000 times more fun. I would work with George Cowan on any project in a heartbeat and would come out the other side more educated and excited to do another one.

Hello: 
I've known George Cowan, personally, for well over 20 years. We have worked together on various projects with great results. I also consider him both a positive influence and a mentor. He's experienced, wise, knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor! I still value his advice to this day and am grateful to have him as both a friend and a fellow professional. Thank-you.

George and I worked together while I was in Todd Rundgren's band "Utopia". He was not only a talented mixing engineer in the studio, but also a pioneering partner in the creation of a custom digital keyboard synthesizer system that we used on tour. George was always a pleasure to work with, and I am happy to recommend him as a seasoned audio technology industry professional.

George approaches all tasks with competent, measured professionalism. Extremely dependable, and detail-conscious, he is a reliable resource on many levels. He is able to adjust to adverse working conditions rapidly, ensuring success of the final production.

George is a top-flight self employed professional Recording Engineer and Concert Sound Engineer with a very impressive resume.

I hired George as a consultant, to help me with a number of equipment issues in my voice-over studio.... every one of which was solved. 
George possesses the very rare qualities of decades of wisdom in his field, combined with a personality that can make you feel as completely at ease as though you were working with an old friend you've trusted for years! 
It was almost easy to forget I was working with a technician who has been trusted regularly with the work of such musical giants as The Band, Joe Jackson, Natalie Merchant, Pete Seeger and Cher, to name just a few. 
Be very happy if you have the opportunity to join forces with George Cowan. It will be a rewarding experience!

Great engineer and great person! I look forward to working with George. He makes me sound good.

I've worked with George on multiple projects and always loved working with him. We also became good friends as a result of working together. George is great at what he does and he is a very witty and creative person, which adds that special spark to any project that he's a part of. I highly recommend him!!

Not only is George one of the best in his field, he is a joy to work with, well liked and respected. He is calm under pressure and his integrity towards his work is unquestionable. I highly recommend him.

George is one of the most resourceful and resilient professionals I know. George is always learning about new technologies and his mixing taste is impeccable. It's always a pleasure to work with George.

George is an extremely talented and motivated professional. He embodies a rare combination of technical expertise and artistic sensitivity. His work is impeccable and he is a true gentleman. I would highly recommend George as both a technical and mixing engineer.
