With Frank Rosato
Mixing and mastering engineer at Woodcliff Studios in Los Angeles. Frequent collaborator on Tiny Giant / FEiN sessions, including FEiN’s Little Homes, Nina Francis’s Between Dreams, and Hammer City / The Hammers’ Heartquake Saga era.
Frank Rosato is a Los Angeles recording / mixing / mastering engineer associated with Woodcliff Studios (Sherman Oaks). Public product copy identifies him as recording engineer of Woodcliff Studio; other credits place him on folk and rock sessions including Susie Glaze’s Live at McCabe’s and Marty Friedman’s Drama, separate from the Luke Walton catalog.
On record: FEiN’s Little Homes, Discogs (May 31, 2016 CD): Tiny Giant recorded · Woodcliff mixed/mastered by Rosato; SoundCloud Outro matches. Between Dreams, Bandcamp: written by Nina Francis, produced by Luke Walton & Brandon Woodward at Tiny Giant, mixed/mastered by Frank Rosato at Woodcliff Studios. Same Tiny Giant → Woodcliff chain on most FEiN singles (2017–2021) after the LP; exception: Bodies (Oct 2021), Cary Singer mix · Riley Knapp master per Discogs.
Heartquake Saga ties Rosato in through a YouTube copy of Forget I Said Anything (Tiny Giant + Rosato mix), a secondary source rather than the main one. On Exist Elsewhere's 413 (2013) the credit is wider: Rosato, Luke Walton and Brandon Woodward all engineered the EP, and Rosato mixed and mastered it (Luke Walton's account; the song pages, e.g. Tokyo, carry the credit).
Broader LA studio work (context, not part of the Luke catalog): Muso.ai and public metadata list Rosato across major-label and indie sessions: Barry Manilow, Spock’s Beard / Pattern-Seeking Animals, Kolohe Kai, Latin Grammy–recognized ranchero work, Susie Glaze (Live at McCabe’s), Marty Friedman (Drama), and long-running Woodcliff rock/pop dates, separate from the FEiN / Nina credits above.
Frank worked with Fernando Perdomo in the LA session world, public credits on Perdomo-produced Jim Camacho material list Rosato as engineer for Gregg Bissonette’s drums at Woodcliff (Looking for a Devil Among Angels). Love Music More: Fernando Perdomo, Walton discusses Frank and the Tiny Giant → Woodcliff era. FEiN connection: Bissonette was Brandon Woodward’s high-school drum teacher: see Gregg Bissonette.
