'Rob Cavallo' is a music producer who has produced several well-known albums. He is currently a senior VP at Reprise Records.
Cavallo was born in Washington, DC; his father (also named Rob) was working in the music industry as a manager. When the younger Rob was about age ten the family moved to Los Angeles, California. As a teen he played in local bands, and after graduating from high school he began working as a recording engineer. In the early 1990s he began working as a producer with the band The Muffs.
Cavallo's number one claim to fame, however, is being responsible for Green Day's signing to Reprise. After listening to a demo tape in his car, Cavallo decided to sign the band. The admiration was mutual, as Green Day was extremely fond of Cavallo's work on the Muffs albums.
Cavallo is an in-house producer with the band Green Day. He has co-produced almost every album, since their multi-million seller ''Dookie'' to their most recent conceptual punk-rock opera ''American Idiot''. Cavallo has also produced records for Jawbreaker, Goo Goo Dolls, Chris Isaak, and Alanis Morissette, plus a number of motion picture soundtracks. He also recently produced Jewel's 6th album, entitled ''Goodbye Alice in Wonderland''.
Cavallo produced My Chemical Romance's third album, ''The Black Parade'', on April 10, 2006, which was released October 23, 2006 internationally and October 24, 2006 in the United States.
