Trevor Thornton

Song Writer, Producer

Major-label Producer, Songwriter & Mix Engineer specializing in top-tier production and mixing for Country, Rock, and Americana.

Let's build something we can stand by forever.
Making records requires passion and talent, but 90% of the game is being someone people actually want to hang out with. My goal is to make the best music possible while making like-minded friends in the process.

SONGWRITING
I’ve been writing since I was 11 and doing it professionally since 13. Finding the heart of a song is instinctual. I frequently co-write on my productions to ensure the foundation is bulletproof. Whether it takes 20 minutes or hours, we’ll chase it until it's right.

PRODUCTION: VOICE MEMO TO MASTER

Foundation: I chart your worktape and track the foundational acoustic guitar or piano.

Vocal: You record your final vocal to that track (in my studio or remotely).

The Build: I build the track around your voice, playing guitar, keys, percussion, and BGVs.

The Players: For everything else, I use Nashville's A-list session players—the guys playing for Morgan Wallen, Kacey Musgraves, and Ella Langley. (Rates are transparent: Drums run $150-$350/song; other instruments $200-$300/song).

MIXING
My philosophy is simple: serve the song. I let the track itself tell me how to form it. Every choice is made purely to elevate the emotion.
