Interview with Alexis Hightower

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: We both need to keep the communication open and be clear about the deliverables.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: A midi Keyboard, an sm7b mic, a UA interface, a very powerful MAC and Logic Pro because it has so many built in sounds.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been singing and playing piano since I was six.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Silky and robust.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Finneas O'Connell. I would like a window into his process because his productions are unmatched.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: A great performance makes for a great production. Start with a great performance and be sure to capture it.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: I get hired to do all kinds of genres but I love anything that has soul whether it's R&B, Pop, Disco, Jazz, or Musical Theater.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Singing with a mix of feeling and accuracy. Balancing technique and artistry is my jam!
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring a love of music and a deep musical vocabulary. My vocal tone is bright and rich at the same time. I try to find the music "inside" the part that is given to me to sing and to bring that out in my performance.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: This depends on the project, but it starts with understanding the clients needs and expects and then seeing how we can exceed expectations together.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I have a Neumann TC 103 mic and a UA interface. I generally record into Pro Tools but I am also comfortable with Logic.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: I honestly can't keep track of the ways in which I am inspired by people who are motivated by a true love of music.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Clients come to me who need professional, polished vocals recorded with vibe and feeling in a clean environment. I read music quite well so I get a good number of clients who require advanced reading skills for complicated and precise vocal parts. I sing with a great deal of feeling so my clients are typically looking for vocals that have depth and style.
