Stuck on Sound
Stuck on Sound is a podcast that delves into the world of sound, exploring its facets, including production, engineering, technology, and business. We also venture into the creative realm of sound, covering songwriting, recording, and performing. Additionally, we consistently focus on the evolving accessibility landscape within the sound and music industries. Hosted by Joey Stuckey, Stuck on Sound is a space where we embrace curiosity and go down exciting rabbit holes.
Joey Stuckey is an award-winning artist, producer, and speaker whose multifaceted career transcends the boundaries of sight, sound, and genre. Blind since early childhood, Joey quickly found connection and inspiration in sound, and what started as a survival skill evolved into a sophisticated and almost supernatural talent. When legendary producer Alan Parsons called Joey “The best ears in the music business,” it was confirmation of what Joey’s fans and clients knew all along: Joey’s superpower is sound.
The Joey Stuckey Band has shared the stage with legendary artists such as James Brown, the B-52s, and Bad Company, and Joey has received dozens of awards, including the Georgia Music Awards' Jazz Artist of the Year. Inducted into the Atlanta Country Music Hall of Fame, Joey also received the 2024 Macon Arts Alliance Cultural Award for his significant contributions to the arts community of central Georgia.
As owner of Shadow Sound Studio in Macon, Georgia, Joey honors each artist’s vision while encouraging them to explore uncharted territory. He has engineered recording sessions with musicians including Randall Bramblett (Steve Winwood, Traffic Gregg Allman and Friends), Chuck Leavell (Rolling Stones, George Harrison, Train), and Mike Mills (R.E.M.), and written songs with Ed Roland (Collective Soul), Paul "Mad Dog" McGuinness (The Popes), and Will Morrison (Modern English). Joey is now expanding Shadow Sound to cement the studio as a destination for education, community, and recording in the birthplace of southern rock.
As a speaker, Joey draws from his experiences as a blind musician and sound engineer, offering both technical advice and motivational talks on overcoming obstacles, living with purpose, and the importance of inclusion. His speaking engagements have spanned international conferences, university lectures, and global corporate events, blending his insights with performance to engage and inspire audiences. On stage, in the studio, or at the podium, Joey offers listeners a sense of belonging, reminding them that even in the dark, connection is always possible.
