Brian Campbell on SoundBetter

Do you need a clarinet and/or saxophone solo, fill, backup, and/or written part added to your recording project? Then I'm the man for the job! I have over 25 years of professional experience playing jazz, swing, New Orleans, Latin, pop, rock, classical, and many other genres. And, to top it off, I can sing too! Take a listen!

My first love is playing jazz and swing on clarinet and sax. I play in the style of Zoot Sims, Lester Young, Benny Goodman, and others. I can read music and improvise on the full range of saxes and clarinets (bass through soprano) and I own and can record on all of the popular saxes (soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, and bass) and clarinets (soprano, alto, and bass).

In addition to jazz and swing, I can play pop, hip hop, rock, indie, New Orleans, country, classical, film sound track, and most any other genre. All I need from you is the track to record against, the sheet music (if it's necessary), and your vision!

Or I can provide swingin' jazzy vocals! I can sing the melody or do backup as I have a great ear for harmony. And, if there are no lyrics, no problem, I'll scat! :)

Please listen to my audio demo all the way through to hear my clarinet and sax in various settings as well as my singing voice. Then contact me today to get more audio samples and other info.

    Brian’s playing is fluid and expressive. It swings in the right places, showing a good musical sense and discernment. His commitment and level of communication is top notch. Highly recommended.

    Brian went the extra mile in providing many great tracks to choose from. His playing is full dimensional, from sweet toned to a swirling technique with great expressive use of dynamics.Highly recommended.

    Really love how inspired Brian is! He sent me the part I asked for as well as a lot of takes where he was really grooving and they came out amazing. Will definitely work with him again!

    Another great set of takes from Brian, the hardest bit is choosing which one to use! Very professional, great communication, and of course brilliant playing.

    Brian was very quick to respond, and he absolutely killed it in all of the takes he sent back. I also appreciate that he explained his reasoning for why he played the way he did (e.g. using vibrato or not). I will definitely keep him in mind for future projects.

    Brian did a fantastic job! He is a real pro. We appreciated the insightful questions he asked before beginning to record, as well as the follow-up information he provided afterwards. It was clear he put a lot of thought and care into the tracks, and we are thrilled with the result. We would definitely love to work with him again.

    Nice work!
    Brian was VERY patient with me with some issues and took the time to help me out.
    In a short time, he made multiple takes for my song and they are all really good.
    I am very lucky to work with a talented musician.

    Thank you so much, Brian.

    Brilliant amazing clarinet player, improviser and interpreter! He made my old school jazz track swing like crazy. Just let him do his thing, you won't regret it.
