about us
our history
Over 35 Years of Excellence
Southern Sound & Lighting has proudly served the
Houston area and beyond for more than 35 years
under the same name and the same owner.
Unlike many production companies, we have never
relied on silent partners or corporate investors.
Our independence allows us to stay true to our values and
remain fully committed to the clients and
communities we serve.
A Different Kind of Business Model
From the beginning, we’ve built our company on a people-first philosophy. We value our employees, clients, and contractors as the foundation of our success. This approach has allowed us to create long-term relationships based on trust, professionalism, and shared commitment to quality.
Experienced & Knowledgeable Team
Our workforce is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable in the industry. Each member of our team brings years of hands-on expertise, ensuring that every event is produced with precision and professionalism. We also believe in giving back — for more than 10 years, we have operated a summer intern program, providing young people with the opportunity to learn the industry and gain real-world experience.
Investing in Our Own Resources
Unlike many companies that rely heavily on cross-rentals, we own and maintain all of our own equipment. This ensures quality, reliability, and availability for our clients. In fact, less than 5 percent of our annual work involves cross-rental equipment, giving us greater control over production value and keeping costs predictable for our clients.
We also own our own fleet of delivery vehicles, ranging from Sprinter vans to 53-foot semi-trailers, giving us the ability to transport equipment efficiently and reliably to events of any scale. Beyond that, we own our primary facility outright and will soon begin construction on our second facility, a testament to the growth and stability we’ve built over decades.
Built on Stability & Trust
For more than three decades, we have proven that consistency, integrity, and investment in people and equipment are the keys to long-term success. Our history is not just about how long we’ve been in business — it’s about how we’ve continually adapted, grown, and delivered excellence without compromising our core values.

our Mission
A Commitment to Excellence in Event Production
At Southern Sound & Lighting, our mission is simple:
to deliver exceptional event production services
that exceed expectations, every time.
From the very beginning, we’ve built our reputation on quality, reliability, and professionalism, ensuring
that every event — whether intimate or arena-sized — is executed with precision and care.
Creating Experiences, Not Just Events
We believe events should be more than just gatherings they should be experiences that inspire, connect, and leave lasting impressions. Our team works tirelessly to transform spaces with world-class audio, video, lighting, LED walls, staging, and drapery, providing clients with a seamless, full-service solution they can trust.
Integrity, Innovation, and Impact
We stand apart because of our dedication to three core values:
-
Integrity – We deliver on our promises, with transparency and honesty guiding every project.

-
Impact – Our goal is not just to produce events, but to create experiences that elevate voices, celebrate milestones, and bring people together.
Built on Experience, Driven by Passion
With over 35 years in the event industry, we’ve grown from a sound-only company into one of Houston’s most trusted full-service production partners. Our success comes from the dedication of our skilled engineers, technicians, and staff, who share a passion for delivering flawless productions and unforgettable experiences.

No matter the size or complexity of your event, we have the expertise, equipment, and precision to get it right the first time.
We don’t just bring sound—we bring industry-standard (or better) gear from the most trusted names in professional audio. From line arrays and wireless microphone systems to digital mixing consoles and signal processing tools, we tailor our setup to fit your specific event and audience needs.
