"LOOSE CONTROL"

​A snazzy NYC production hub, idea bank and "defibrillation facility" for creatives, Serious Vein's wide purview is rooted in excellence and levity, whose coexistence yields astonishing and proven results.

From concept to culmination, creative works of all stripes are executed with passion, discipline and detail while nurturing the delight, humor and flow of divergent & free-thinking. Outcomes range from locally famous to internationally infamous!

Serious Vein is home base to producer-musician-actor-writer-director-coach-consultant-photographer (and hyphenate-skeptic) Pete Macnamara, Fine&Dandy Records, Spiny Norman Publishing, and the performing artist "p-Rex."
