check_circleVerifiedIsaiah did a great job on my song. Extremely talented singer and great communicator. I recommend!
check_circleVerifiedI needed Isaiah to breathe some HUGE life into vocals for a piano demo and he killed it! He found the perfect approach to getting some of himself in there as an artist while balancing the need to play it straight for a reference track. Took my backgrounds to the next level, helped vocally produce some parts where he thought the song could shine more. Vocals were super clean and THICK. Fast turnaround, easy to work with. Definitely recommend you hit him up!
