Freelance
About
I am available for all types of musical freelance work, including session recording, hired performances, music lessons, demo recordings, arrangements, and consultations. See the "Services" tab above to browse what types of services I can offer for your current needs.
In the studio, I specialize in vocal tracking for Rock, Jazz and Orchestral style music, but I am confident that I can blend into whatever sound you're looking for. My experience in vocal tracking ranges from in-home demos, to television pilots, independent films, and major motion pictures. See below for some of my more notable studio sessions.
On keyboards I am capable of adapting my sound to almost any genre, including rock, pop, jazz, reggae, funk, psychedelic, classical, and orchestral, due to the wide variety of projects I have participated in throughout my life. I am a classically trained pianist with over 20 years of experience, and have placed most of my recent efforts in achieving massive rock tones through the use of Rhodes, organ, synthesizer, and experimental sounds.
Please reach out if you have a project you need assistance on, and I am happy to help however I can.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
About
This was my first experience working on a major motion picture. I was hired into a children's choir put together by the musical director, Sally Stevens. The session was directed and conducted by John Williams himself.
Our choir recorded the song Double Trouble which was featured as the theme song of this particular Harry Potter movie, and also was featured in the official movie trailer.
Peter Pan
About
The soundtrack for Peter Pan was written and directed by James Newton Howard, and featured a large choir of all ages. We powered through a near 15-hour day of recording to get all the vocal tracks completed for the entire movie in one session.
The songs in this movie had a very ambient tone, and thus were mostly ooh's and aah's - no words. I sang on every single track in this movie and received screen credit for the work that was done.
The Polar Express
About
The soundtrack for The Polar Express was written and directed by James Newton Howard, and featured a large choir of all ages. Much like with the Peter Pan session, the songs I recorded had no words, and were meant to add some texture underneath the dialogue.
I Only Cried Twice
About
I Only Cried Twice was a short independent film, written and produced by Erica Bennett, and directed by Mason Malone. It earned the award for Best Short Film at the 2018 Los Angeles Independent Film Festival.
I was hired to play a classical rendition of "O Christmas Tree" on the piano, which was placed over the final credits.
Sterling Audio Development Sessions
About
In my current role with Guitar Center Inc., I am often times used to record vocals and/or keyboards for product development purposes. They use me to deliver consistent performances across several microphones, using prototype Sterling microphones followed by direct competitive comparison models. This helps decide what features in the prototypes are considered strengths, and what needs some work.
