LOS ANGELES, CA


Steve Kravac is a RIAA gold accredited record producer, recording engineer, musician and composer, working from Los Angeles, CA. He has built a strong reputation as an exacting producer & engineer, while working with groundbreaking International recording artists.

Steve entered the American punk rock and indie rock scene with a five-year tenure as head engineer at Westbeach Recorders. Legendary in the punk rock community, Westbeach, owned by Brett Gurewitz, of Epitaph Records, was the staple recording outlet for acts like The Offspring and Rancid. One of the first sessions Steve engineered at this studio, was the album “Cheshire Cat” by Blink 182.  The record went on to sell 400,000 units and provided a springboard to other production and engineering opportunities. 

After leaving Westbeach, Kravac built a solid discography with many notable indie and punk rock artists, receiving a RIAA certified gold record for his work as producer, engineer and mixer on  “Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo”, by  M.X.P.X.. He also produced their album, “Life in General” which featured the band’s most popular single, “Chick Magnet”. His work with M.X.P.X. alone, has netted sales well in excess of one-million records.

Another of his hugely successful projects was with the band Pepper, from Hawaii. With Steve handling production, engineering and mixing duties, the band achieved their biggest selling release, “Kona Town”. The album’s hit single “Give It Up” has become a major radio hit and still garners daily spins on KROQ and other highly influential stations.

Steve’s vision, attention to detail and nurturing persona make him an ideal partner for artists who seek to push themselves beyond their expectations to achieve personal growth, in addition to professional success.  He currently operates his own studio called “Hell’s Half Acre” which is located in the Southern California mountains just North of Los Angeles
