Dan Radin on SoundBetter

Cellist supporting singer-songwriters, rock bands, folk groups, and every artist in-between.

Singer-songwriters, rock bands, pop singers, rappers, and other contemporary artists use strings (cello/violin/viola) to evoke a different emotion and to make their songs stand out.

However, great string players are hard to come by. It's even more rare that they ***know how to work with non-classical artists***.

If you're reading this, you probably need a cellist who can:

- work quickly and effectively with producers
- record radio-quality tracks
- improvise
- arrange string parts
- adapt to feedback
- send you revisions quickly
- understand chord charts/lead sheets
- sightread read written sheet music
- communicate honestly and be someone you enjoy working with

Like most cellists, I've got a music degree and classical training. I studied at Carnegie Mellon University with Nicole Myers (Cello Fury), played in the University of Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, and actually still study with Charles Prewitt (Willie Nelson, Austin Symphony Orchestra).

Geographically, I split time between Austin and Nashville. I've played in bands opening for Grammy winners, backed (a handful of) The Voice contestants, and performed official SXSW showcases.

It would be an honor to work with you on your next project.

Dan is a friendly and communicative client to work with. The multitrack session sent to me for mixing was well organised, with a nice arrangement to work on, and a lot of effort and thought had gone into the tracking stage. His feedback on the mixes was detailed, clear and well considered, and he was really open to ideas. I'd happily work for him again.
