PRO Singer/Songwriter

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: Analog can't be beaten, but digital I can take anywhere!

Q: What do you like most about your job?

A: Absolutely everything as obnoxious as that might sound!

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

A: I've been in the studio since I was about 16/17 years old, writing for producers mostly. When I was 19, I went to one of the most exclusive schools for musicians in my country, and graduated 3 years later as a vocalist. I've been constantly trying new things, practicing, writing with other people and developing my skills, to the point where I now can confidently say I am a good trained writer and singer! Though I will continue to grow and learn because experience is the best practice.

Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

A: You! ;)

Q: What's your strongest skill?

A: Creativity! If one thing doesn't work, we try something else. I usually have multiple ideas and options to pick the best one from!

Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

A: Songwriting, Vocal Recordings or both!

Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A: Very logical but probably about my prices since they can vary so much depending on my customers wishes. Some people find it way too expensive and some say that I'm selling myself short. I guess it just depends on what it's worth for people. Not everyone understands the way prices are calculated in music, of course especially the people who are not in it themselves, and that's okay.

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: A unique sound as well as catchy sounds and lyrics. I also always go the extra mile for a project to really make sure it lives up to it's potential.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

A: Working with a UAD Apollo Twin interface, Neumann TLM102 or Shure SM7B Microphone with a Apple Macbook Pro on Logic Pro X.

Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

A: I will guarantee quality and 100% commitment. I will never half-ass a gig, that is not fair to anyone and I know that I can do better. I'm a perfectionist and love to make people happy, so I will give my all for every single gig.

Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?

A: That it's 'easy money' or 'easy work'. If I was in it for the money I would've quit 5 years ago and if it was easy I wouldn't do it! I don't mind explaining it to people though, since often it's simply ignorance and that's okay. After all it isn't a typical 9-5 job they teach you about in school!

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: Most importantly their wishes and what they are expecting. I believe transparency and communication is key so I want as much information as you can give me, so I can provide the project to be as close to these expectations as possible. However, if I believe what you're expecting might not be exactly what I can deliver, I will also tell you that and we can discuss what IS possible.

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A: If you have found someone you would like to work with, contact them and ask them everything you want to know. Never hold back or feel uncomfortable when something is unclear of when you're unfamiliar with a topic we're discussing, because I will gladly take the time to answer questions, advise and clear up any confusion. There are no stupid questions and you're definitely not bothering me!
