I'm a 20 plus year multi-instrumentalist and I've been running my own studio for the last five years. I offer recording (locally), mixing and editing, mastering, as well as session drums, guitar, and bass.
I play many styles of music. My rates are very flexible and my work is great quality. I've been very fortunate to obtain what I have which allows me to charge a lot less for my services than most people. I believe, and know that being an artist is very expensive and not everyone had the bank roll to afford high rates that many studios charge. I'm open to all sorts of ideas and provide many services. Contact me with any questions you may have and lets brings your dreams to life.
