Torn comments: “I’ve known Executive Producer Jennie Armon for years and the more I saw founders Jay Wadley and Trevor Gureckis’ names popping up on these high-profile films and TV projects, the bigger fan I became of Found Objects. The creative insight, passion and focus on creating amazing music couldn’t be more clear, and it shows, not just in the awards, but in the creativity of work being produced. They have been building something truly wonderful, and with as much care for people as the music itself. As I help lead the creative and production team into new opportunities in sonic branding and bring my experience to the next act of Found Objects, I’m definitely excited for what the future holds.”
