NACEY IS AN
AWARD-WINNING
COMPOSER, PRODUCER
AND SOUND DESIGNER.
Andrew Wallace — professionally known as NACEY — is an award-winning composer, producer, and sound designer whose work has appeared in more than 100 films, television series, games, and advertising campaigns. His music has been featured in productions including Reacher, MAID, Homeland, and Bel-Air, as well as campaigns for Nike, Calvin Klein, the NFL, and other global brands.
As an artist, Nacey has released music through Universal Republic, Kitsuné, Mad Decent, Casablanca, Polydor, and Universal Production Music, earning support from Pitchfork, KCRW, KEXP, FACT Magazine, The FADER, NPR, and other leading music outlets. He co-founded and produced the acclaimed indie-pop band MISUN, recognized by SPIN as one of its Best New Artists, while continuing to explore everything from cinematic composition and psychedelic rock to electronic music, hip-hop, and immersive audio.
Beyond his artist releases, Nacey's work spans custom composition, sound design, and music production for film, television, advertising, games, podcasts, and emerging media. His sound design credits include projects featuring Megan Thee Stallion, YUNGBLUD, and TOKiMONSTA, reflecting a creative approach that moves fluidly between songwriting, sonic storytelling, and post-production.
A graduate of the University of Rochester, he also holds professional certificates in Game Audio Design from Berklee College of Music and Television & Film Production from NYU Tisch School for the Arts.
Every piece of music begins the same way: with curiosity, experimentation, and the belief that great audio should feel unmistakably human. Every note is written, played, produced, and finished by a person—not generated by a prompt.
Nacey is based in Washington, DC, where he creates original music and operates
NACEY AUDIO HOUSE, his independent studio for professional audio production.

PRESS
Selected press, reviews, interviews, and radio support.
If you think you know Nacey as just a solid producer on the rise, then look again. Now see him holding a guitar...expanding the notion of what makes a hit pop song.
COMPLEX MAGAZINE
Nacey produced Washington D.C. project MISUN make exhilarating power pop. June is invigorated by crazy guitar and frantic synth, those racing thoughts—Am I letting go? Was I ever in control?—are turned into an anthem for insomniacs.
THE FADER
Misun are confidently mellow, blending the singer's soulful and summery sentiments with Nacey's experimental electro-pop production. They once described themselves as 'aquawave', but the trio now enters an entirely different climate.
PITCHFORK MAGAZINE
Misun unearths slick handclap-laden pop for the dismal lyrics lover. Their want to groove while singing catchy hooks is what makes up their deliciously unavoidable tonic. The sound is a diverse collage of wicked 1960s rock, finger snapping doo-wop and throwback 1990s house.
SPIN MAGAZINE
We take our music very seriously. We don't put our stamp of approval on anything that we wouldn't load directly into our own iPod. So, you can trust the excitement we're bubbling over with in sharing the new Nacey-produced song by Misun, 'Eli Eli.'
REFINERY29
Nacey adds a monster of a track to his solo catalog with 'I Own It.' The latest from the DC-bred producer features vocals from none other than Angel Haze, and sounds like an explosive cross between Major Lazer and Nicki Minaj. This might be our favorite from him yet.
ALL THINGS GO
Nacey-produced Misun 'Superstitions' album is listed as one of the year's best albums by KCRW, Hillydilly and The Revue. KCRW calls 'the sound timeless, and band mysterious - without exception we love every one of their songs.'
LA'S KCRW 88.9 FM
Nacey productions MIA - 'Steppin Up' (Nacey Remix), La Roux - 'Bulletproof' (Nacey Remix), Misun - 'Harlot' and Misun 'After Me' earn #1 spots on Hype Machine's most popular charts - and Misun is awarded 'Most Blogged Artist' by the Hypem Zeitgeist.
THE HYPE MACHINE
Every summer, I have a new romance to carry me through to September and usually beyond. This time around, I've fallen for Misun. The band's members met while working at a restaurant in Washington, D.C., and their sound couldn't be less Dischord/Fugazi/Bad Brains. It's more rippling guitars and soft, smart beats with understated yet sharp production.
NPR
Lazerproof featured tracks in edited and mashed form not only from Major Lazer and La Roux themselves, but from Drake, Gucci Mane, Skream, Rusko, Heroes x Villains, and Nacey; it was simply ahead of it's time.
MAD DECENT RECORDS
Nouveau Riche is known throughout DC for consistently throwing one of the best dance parties in the city. It is the combined efforts of three of the city’s finest, Gavin Holland, Nacey and Steve Starks. Nacey’s Future 'Same Damn Time' Remix is what Trillectro is all about.
