The Music Process...
Writing
Lyric Creation
My writing services focus on helping you to craft compelling lyrics and music that resonate with your audience, delivering impactful messages through the power of words and music.
Arranging
Musical Harmony
With a keen ear for harmonies and structure, I can arrange your musical ideas to fully express all the richness your music deserves.
Recording, Mixing, Mastering...
...and when you're ready to record, mix and master, our studio has three isolation rooms plus isolated closets to allow you to record your music alongside your band, while producing isolated tracks to give us maximum control over your finished project.
Music creation is rarely done alone. I have been lucky enough to develop a long list of artists who can be part of your project to expand your own creativity and expression. Lending their talents, skills and hearts to your music, these wonderful musicians can help bring life to your vision. Some of these musicians include Justin Avdek, Justin Weirenga, Mike Shimmin, Sarena Rae, Max Lockwood, Davey Jones, Hannah Lane, Steve Harris, Robert Pace, Scott Pellegrom among many other well known Michigan musicians.
As for myself, I've been in the music business for nearly 25 years and have logged thousands of miles, performing in too many shows to count all across this country and now in the UK, Ireland and Europe. I believe those experiences in front of audiences has prepared me to produce music that will help you capture the hearts of your audience, expressing the best of your creativity.
