Platform Studio was formed in 1999 by professional musician Damon Sawyer and is located near Reading in Hurst, Wokingham. We provide a comfortable, affordable, accessible and unique recording experience. Over the past decade we have worked with many different artists and bands including Bernie Marsden (Whitesnake, Moody Marsden Band), Frank Tontoh (Amy Winehouse, Craig David, George Michael), Marmalade and Gary Nuttall (Robbie Williams) to name just a few.

Most recently we had the pleasure of working with legendary Blues producer Mike Vernon (Fleetwood Mac, Eric Clapton, John Mayall and Level 42), creating two albums for German crossover Blues label Ruf Records. The first album for Oli Brown, recently announced as the 2010 British Blues Awards 'Male Vocalist of the Year' and 'Young Artist of the Year' on his current album 'Heads I Win, Tails You Lose' and the second album 'Shine' by Dani Wilde recorded and mixed by Damon Sawyer. Both of which are currently receiving rave reviews.

As well as being the Head Engineer/Producer at Platform Studio, Damon is a professional drummer who has toured and recorded throughout Europe, Brazil and Canada. Some of the artists he has had the pleasure of working with include Paul Rogers, Bill Wyman and the Rhythm Kings, Ben E King, Pee Wee Ellis, Paul Jones, Sam Moore, Albert Lee, Sandy Newman, Bernie Marsden, Sonny Black, Chip Hawkes, Graham Lyle and Chicago Blues artists Dave Spector, Deitra Farr, Jimmy Dawkins and Mojo Buford. Damon has also recorded numerous BBC sessions for Radio 2 at Maida Vale for the Paul Jones Blues Show.
