Andrew Robert Wade (born August 4, 1984)[1] is an American recording engineer and music producer.
In August 2002, Wade started playing guitar and singing lead vocals[1] in Christian rock/emo band A Wish for Marilynne.[2] By September 2003, the band had written seven songs, three of which made it on to a demo tape, that was recorded four months prior.[3] In an interview with the Ocala Star-Banner the band said that once they had ten songs they were going to start recording, and Wade said "it's (going to) be a lot better than the demo."[3] By this point, the group had performed a total of twelve shows.[3] The band started recording their album, Poetic Chaos,[4] at Wade's The Wade Studio on May 10, 2004,[5] with a projected release date of June.[4]
In June, the band were booking dates for a summer tour with bands A Midnight and May and There for Tomorrow.[4] The band performed at Easy Street in Ocala, Florida on June 3 with bands Starting Over and A Day to Remember, and at The Masquerade in Ocala, Florida on June 20 with bands Inkblot (Cornerstone '04), Vindicated Youth, and Knox Overstreet.[4] In August, the band said on their website that the album would "be ready by the end of summer".[6] Song songs were uploaded to the band's PureVolume account.[6] In December, the band announced recording had finished and release was soon to follow.[7] In February 2005, the band announced that the album, Poetic Chaos, was to be released on March 18.[8] A release show was held Central Christian Church on the same day, featuring bands There For Tomorrow, A Day to Remember, and Starting Over.[9] Song previews were also made available on the band's MySpace account.[9] In early 2006, the band announced they were no longer together.[10]
By October 2004, The Wade Studio's equipment was the following: Soundcraft Spirit E8 Mixer, Multicom Pro XL - compressor/limiter/gate, Soundtech ST31EQ - 31 band equalizer, Creative I-Trigue L3500 100 watt monitoring system, Edirol MA-10ABK Stereo Powered Monitors, a variety of plugins, Studiologic velocity-sensitive MIDI controller, Cad M177 condenser mic, Nady SCM900 condenser mic, Shure SM57, 3 CAD TSM411 dynamic drum mics, pair of Apex 170 condenser mics, and a CAD KBM412 large-diameter dynamic kick mic.[11]
Wade, along with Drew Russ, under the name Manly Masculine Men[12] recorded the theme song, "Making History", for the web series that was to support A Day to Remember's Common Courtesy (2013) album.[13] "Making History" was released a single, under the name Manly Masculine Men on October 25.[14] [15]
