International creative audio network Squeak E. Clean Studios has added Nick Doering as a producer out of its New York office. Doering will leverage his expertise spanning both the creative and business sides of music production to facilitate creative collaborations between Squeak E. Clean Studios’ clients and its slate of award-winning composers, sound designers and others across a wide range of projects. He has secured placements for tracks spanning branded content with clients such as Apple, Samsung and McDonald’s, films including Booksmart and Dr. Sleep, and TV shows including Ray Donovan.
Born in Portland, Ore., Doering started his music career in high school in a friend’s garage with some instruments, GarageBand, a cheap microphone and a love of the music video genre. He attended Berklee College of Music in Boston where he majored in music production and engineering. While there, he played the role of artist, engineer, mixer, producer and writer, honing his musical skills and knowledge of the music industry, graduating magna cum laude.
Post-grad, he cut his teeth in the industry on the synchronization and licensing team at Primary Wave Music Publishing following an internship, where he oversaw and ran a pitch database of over 20,000 copyrights including the music of Whitney Houston, Bob Marley, Smokey, Frank Sinatra, Alice Cooper, Lady Gaga, The Band, Imagine Dragons and Ed Sheeran. Doering then transitioned to Squeak E. Clean Studios while pursuing his love of sync, pairing his engineering background with a passion for music and media.
