Joe McGinty Music on SoundBetter

Hello, I was a member of the Psychedelic Furs and other credits include Ryan Adams, Nada Surf, The Ramones, etc. I currently have a vintage keyboard studio and I can add my vintage keyboard playing and expertise to your track. Also available for co-writes.

At my vintage keyboard studio I have a Fender Rhodes, an amazing early Wurlitzer electric piano, a Hammond M3 & Leslie, Clavinet, and many synthesizers: vintage Moogs, ARPs and Oberheims, and current synthesizers as well. A beautiful Steinway upright, Optigan, Electric Harpsichord. And the list goes on and on.
I can record via Universal Audio into ProTools or Logic. Additional credits include Space Hog, Ronnie Spector, Okkervill River, Martha Wainwright, Nina Persson.
I am also very good at writing catchy melodies. I've worked in TV and film, and recently wrote a big band era song for Christopher Walken to sing!

Tell me about your project and how I can help, through the 'Contact' button above.

    Joe did an excellent job. He created a great soundscape that supported the song and played some epic parts that enhanced the song! Joe is a professional and a pleasure to work with! I would definitely work with Joe again.

    So it's one thing when a musician is gifted at their instrument and it's a whole other thing when they have a brilliant imagination. Joe has both those in boat loads. He builds beautiful worlds and hooks in truly unique ways. Sweet guy on top of all that! I will definitely be returning, how could I not!

    Joe provided fantastic Rhodes and synth parts for my song. It was exactly what the song called for. I'd definitely work with him again.
