My name is Keith Hartman. I’m a mastering engineer in Charleston, South Carolina. I’ve been a musician since 1997, beginning on guitar and moving onto bass, drums, piano, singing, songwriting, recording, and of course, mastering. I release my own songs under my artist name, Sherman Hesse. I’m formerly the electric guitarist in the band The Joy Eternal.
I first became interested in the mastering process while present with Grammy-winning engineer Gavin Lurssen in Hollywood, CA as he mastered my first solo album. For over ten years, I’ve been recording, mixing, and mastering for other artists and myself, investing in schooling and mastering tools. In 2021, I furthered my education by completing a 3-month mentorship program created by Blake La Grange (Kayne West, Nine Inch Nails, Cheap Trick) at Mercury Mastering.
