J.P. Plunier’s career and subtle nuance for his craft have much akin
to that of a master watchmaker. An artisan rarely seen but always
respected by the discerning individual for the complexities contained
within the timepiece itself, Plunier finds much in common as he is
perhaps one of the most aesthetically-sound yet least visible entities
in the vast expanse of the music industry today.
Having discovered and nurtured such talent as Ben Harper and Jack
Johnson, even managing the former while directing music videos
throughout the process, JP’s instinctive grasp for others artistic
vision and potential is what has assured the fact that even should you
be unfamiliar with his name, you’ve surely heard his work with others.
