About

With nearly 20 years of professional experience in the entertainment industry, Michael Stanley brings a dynamic vision to lighting and set design. Being a skilled programmer and designer, Stanley has displayed an array of designs working with numerous acts, across multiple genres, in every style of venue.

His vast experience as a touring production manager and lighting engineer guarantees a versatile and adaptable design, despite the range of venues on the schedule. Pride in your work is a quality that Stanley holds in high regard, and providing a show clients can be proud of is the goal at Voodoo Lighting Design.

He currently resides in the suburbs of Nashville, TN with his wife and two children. On the rare occasion that he is not working, you can find him at Radnor Lake or smoking a cigar on his deck.
