Happy birthday to @studiodog ! He has a long history with The Smashing Pumpkins. He played drums on "Blew Away" and produced "Starla" and "Plume" for Pisces Iscariot, as well as "Believe", "...Said Sadly" and "The Boy" with James Iha. He guested at many shows over the years, such as some of 1996's Infinite Sadness tour, when he drummed on "1979" with Jimmy Chamberlin on guitar, and sang on various other songs. 2007's Zeitgeist was recorded in Brown's home studio. At least 300 Smashing Pumpkins songs were recorded there in demo format, including original versions of songs heard on Teargarden by Kaleidyscope.
Brown wrote for, drummed, recorded, and produced for his band Catherine until 1998. During some of this time he was married to D'arcy Wretzky, who contributed vocals to their final album. Catherine reunited for one-off 2-song set at a SP concert at the Riveria Theatre in Chicago on October 14, 2011, featuring Billy Corgan on guitar.
Brown played hand drums in Spirits in the Sky, a short lived live band that featured Corgan, Dave Navarro, Mark Tulin, Ysanne Spevack, and future SP drummer Mike Byrne. Brown drummed for the one-off group Backwards Clock Society, which featured Tulin on bass and Corgan on vocals and guitar. They played a single show on November 8, 2009. Future SP bassist Nicole Fiorentino was performing with Light FM at this show, and was pointed out to Corgan by Brown.
In January 2010, Brown announced he started the Startone Records record label with Corgan. The roster was to include Starchildren, The Electric Prunes, The Strawberry Alarm Clock and YaHoWha 13. However, the collaboration fell through so the status of the label is unclear.
Brown has also worked with Miley Cyrus, Jessica Simpson, Courtney Love, Ysanne Spevack, Kelley Deal, Nina Gordon, and Cheap Trick – acts SP or individual members have also worked with. Brown also founded @rollinglivestudios, which has hosted the 'Mike Garson's A Bowie Celebration' livestream events honoring David Bowie and featuring Corgan.
Brown won the CAS Award for Outstanding Achievement in Sound Mixing for his work on SP's 'If All Goes Wrong' documentary.
