GRAMMY Award-winning and platinum-selling producer Andrew Watt will deliver a keynote address at the upcoming AES Show 2025 in Long Beach, California. The event will take place on Friday, October 24, from 12 to 1:00pm. Moderating the conversation will be Chad Smith, drummer of the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Watt has collaborated with Lady Gaga, Elton John, Brandi Carlile, Post Malone, Dua Lipa, Justin Bieber, Ozzy Osbourne, and The Rolling Stones. In his keynote, titled Creativity, Collaboration, and the Modern Producer's Role, he will share insights from his journey at the forefront of contemporary music, exploring how he navigates genres, fosters collaboration and trust in the studio, and helps artists at every stage of their careers create career-defining work.

"Andrew has become one of the defining producers of our time, and we're thrilled to bring him to the AES stage," says president Gary Gottlieb. "Having Chad Smith moderate the discussion with Andrew makes this keynote even more special. We will see two musicians with a genuine history together offering an authentic, behind-the-scenes perspective on creativity and production in today's music industry."

This keynote will be a centerpiece of AES Show 2025, which takes place October 23-25 at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center. The convention will once again gather audio professionals, engineers, producers and students from around the world to share knowledge, explore new technologies, and celebrate the art and science of sound.
