Dashut was born in West Hollywood, California, and started his career sweeping floors in a recording studio where he later met Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Keith Olsen hired Dashut as a maintenance worker at Sound City and later employed him as second engineer on a few albums including Buckingham Nicks, which in turn led to Dashut's work with Fleetwood Mac.[1] Dashut also co-wrote several songs with Lindsey Buckingham and also co-produced his Law and Order and Out of the Cradle solo albums
