"LOOSE CONTROL"

A snazzy NYC media production hub, idea bank and "defibrillation studio" for performers, Serious Vein's wide purview embraces excellence and levity, whose coexistence consistently yields surprising and proven results.

From concept to culmination, creative projects of all stripes are executed with passion, discipline and detail while nurturing the delight, humor and flow of divergent free-thinking. Several outcomes have had global impact.

Serious Vein is the home base of 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."
