A conversation with Ashley Marie Fraley, Marketing Manager
Tell us your story!
Showtime Sound LLC was founded in 2006. Owners Scott Tydings and Shawn Hocherl met through live performances when Shawn’s band was touring and Scott provided production services such as audio and lighting for the group. When Shawn decided to leave drumming professionally, he joined forces with Scott to create Showtime Sound LLC. They saw a need for high-end event production services based in the Frederick area. The business rapidly grew into a festival, touring, private, and corporate event service. Showtime Sound now produces Audio, Video, Lighting, Staging, and Backline for events around the world.
