Specializing in Piano, Lead & Background Vocals, and Wurlitzer/Rhodes/Keyboard parts for your music.

Hi, I have been a Nashville-based musician for nearly 20 years. I have toured and recorded as an artist myself, and with others.
Currently specializing in Piano & Keyboard recordings (MIDI and/or audio) and Lead & Background Vocals. I am glad to provide these tracks for you and your songs provided you have charts, lead sheets or lyric sheets available.
As a lead vocalist, I'm in the Sara Bareilles/Linda Ronstadt/Stevie Nicks vein - my range is from F# below middle C, to C or D above middle C in full belt, and much higher singing falsetto.
I'm a versatile keyboard player, and can play in a variety of styles. I also read music well, if your music comes with a notated part.
A disclaimer - if your music is in need of further arranging or notation prior to being recorded, my tour schedule isn't allowing me time to do this in addition and I encourage you to contact someone else. I am also not currently producing full tracks.
Lastly, I do not specialize in mixing so if you are not planning on mixing your music yourself, I would recommend you plan to have a mix engineer on hand when you are completely finished with your project. (I'm not going to falsely claim I have the most desirable skills to offer in the mixing department. :) )
Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.

check_circleVerifiedRachel has an amazing ability to enhance a song with her sweet voice and incredible piano skills. She worked diligently to complete a song project, singularly crafting a final product that was beyond expectations. She is creative and adds personal touches that speak to, and elevate, the meaning of the song. And besides all that she is a wonderful and very very very patient person... Thank you very much, Rachel... :)
check_circleVerifiedSecond time working with Rachel, will hire again
check_circleVerifiedRachel was friendly, professional, and delivered just what I was looking for. :)
I love everything about the work Rachel did for me. Will hire her again in the very near future.
Rachel is a force! Piano, vocals, writing. Do not pass go. Hire this woman!
I have had Rachel, sing and play keys on several of my songs. I have found her to be the consummate musician as she can capture the feeling and vibe of a song and enhance it with her creativity. She often surprises me with the parts she comes up with-they're beyond what I had in mind. 5 stars for Rachel!
