One805 has announced that 13-time Grammy Award nominee and Grammy Award-winner, recording artist, songwriter, musician, and record producer Alan Parsons will be the musical director for the One805Live! fall concert at Kevin Costner’s oceanside Carpinteria estate.

Headlining the event in September are Pink and Dallas Green performing as the duo Me + You, with additional performances from Grammy Award winners Kenny Loggins and Richard Marx.

Goleta-based Alan began his career at London’s legendary Abbey Road Studios at the age of 18, his first credits as sound engineer The Beatles’ Abbey Road and Let It Be.

Notable engineering works of his include Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon, for which he earned his first Grammy nomination, and Al Stewart’s Year of the Cat, where he was responsible for the iconic saxophone part.

He received an OBE – Order of the British Empire – in the 2021 Honors List and is a founding board member of One805.
