Closer With... Simone Marie Simone Butler

In this special episode I talk with Front of house sound engineer supreme Scottie Baldwin. Scottie has worked with so many artists including Stevie Wonder, Lady GaGa, Madonna, Duran Duran, D'Angelo, Scissor Sisters and of course Prince, whom he worked with for 26 years. It was incredibly fascinating and inspiring to talk with him and of course its a must for any Prince fan and anyone interested in the world of live sound.
