ABOUT
Chiaran Verheyden is a musician, producer and audio engineer based in Mechelen, Belgium. As songwriter and guitarist for Hippotraktor (Pelagic Records), he understands the distance between a raw performance and a finished record — and how to close it without losing what made it matter.
His credits span Psychonaut, BEAR, Pothamus, Ronker, and many others — with records praised by Kerrang!, Metal Hammer, Metal Injection, and the wider heavy music press.
