He also has a private consulting practice that mentors select individuals interested in pursuing a career in the music business as artists, music recording and production professionals, or session musicians. His career in the music industry spans over several decades dating back to when he was just a teenager starting out and running his own recording studio in the town of Weymouth, Mass. It was there, on Boston's South Shore, where he eventually crossed paths with another well-known musician from the area, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. The two hit it off and immediately formed long time relationship that was both from a personal and professional place. Santo, eventually started working with the band. First, as Steven Tyler and Joe Perry's personal sound engineer, and eventually, with the entire band. He is credited on several of the band's studio albums, both as a sound engineer and contributing musician. During that time, he became known as one of the “Boneyard Boys” which is the small “tight knit” group of producers and collaborators who are behind Aerosmith's "creative process" when they are in studio, recording albums. His work on those recordings eventually got him recognized in the music world and led to his working with other artists and producers in studios from Los Angeles to London. His music career spans over several decades and is pan-optic of a full range of musical styles and genres, from rock and rhythm and blues to hip hop and country. Santo played guitar with Aerosmith during their "Boston Strong" concert at TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts, filling in for member Brad Whitford who was unable to make the show due to a family situation. He also appeared on the recording of "Tears in Heaven". An "All-Star" benefit song for the victims of the devastating 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, organized by Ozzy Osbourne and his family along with Mark Hudson. (en) |

| dbp:quote | We actually have this guy, who's our pre-production assistant... A friend of ours named: Paul Santo. He's such a brilliant musician... One of those kids that just got that "bolt of lightning..." You know, great on drums, great on guitar, great on piano... He's also the one who knows all about ProTools. He has helped me and Joey with preparing our bass and drum parts... During the writing process: Steven [Tyler], Joe [Perry], Marty Fredrickson and Mark Hudson would be recording, as they wrote, and these cool little demos would come out... Then, they would send them around to the rest of us. So we could prepare our take on it. It was great. Paul would come over and run the ProTools and help me record what I was practicing. So, I could hear what I was doing right, and doing wrong. He was not only able to run the ProTools for me, he would also give me suggestions that were essentially shortcuts to getting it all good. I think it's important to find a mentor, a teacher, or a Guru They're not necessarily teaching you stuff you couldn't learn on your own... But, they shorten the process. Pointing things out that you might not see for six months or even six years. I recommend that to anyone playing an instrument, find someone who's a guru, like Paul is to us...I'm stopping just short of saying "take lessons,"here. I think a lot of teachers try to force you into a certain way of doing things, that you don't want to do – teachers sometimes do that. You want someone that looks at what you do, sees that you have the potential to go in the right direction, and then show you how to find it, yourself.'' --Christopher Buttner-- interview for GlobalBass.com (en) |
