David Bottrill


David Bottrill is a Canadian record producer, known for his work with Peter Gabriel, Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, Muse, Metric, Silverchair, Staind and Rush. He’s cultivated the aggressive hard-rock palette of bands like Stone Sour, Godsmack, and Coheed and Cambria, while maintaining a connection to other ends of the spectrum with artists like King Crimson and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Bottrill's work has earned three Grammy Awards and over 15 million copies sold worldwide. “I prefer to work on music that has a strong identity and shows elements of originality,” David states, “genre isn’t really important.” It’s this focus on identity and potential that inspires David to push artists to curate the best of themselves, and make music that defines who they are in that moment.
Bottrill lived in the UK for 20 years, followed by a term in New York, before returning to Toronto, Canada, for the time being, to be closer to his hometown.
