As a folk artist myself, the picture she had painted about her song and vision really resonated with me. We had talks about finding a way to produce the music that took you back to a Mississippi front porch. Picture sitting on the front porch picking on an old beat up acoustic guitar as musicians join in. The first goal, find the… [Read More]

Communication. The root of a lot of sessions that go wrong as well as relationships in general not working out comes down to this word COMMUNICATION. After years of working on productions in all styles, languages with different personalities, I thought I’d throw together a quick blog on what I have seen WORKS. Keep it short. Musicians in general don’t like to read. I have seen clients write paragraphs upon paragraphs of changes that they’d like to have made. What… [Read More]

This month’s featured artist, Fern Walker Jones is a Texas based singer/songwriter. I especially enjoyed working with Fern on this song as it was tapping into the smooth jazz side of our team and the musicians had so much fun with the more intricate instrumentation on this song! To capture a smooth jazz feel, we started out the production with our saxophonist taking a lead solo to kick start the production and set the tone for the piece. What follows… [Read More]
