Endorse Jeffrey Bryan- check_circleVerified
I can't say enough great things about Jeffrey. He took the little bit I gave him and turned it into a track that was fabulous. His instinct is impeccable and I cant wait to work with him again in the future. He also nailed it with a quick turnaround time knowing I was on a tight time frame and still provided top quality work. If you're looking for something beautiful and service that makes you feel at ease with your personal works of music, Jeffrey is the perfect musician for you.
Interview with Jeffrey Bryan
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Analog for the organic-ness and imperfect warmth. Digital for the myriad of choices and ease of use.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I will always listen to you and try my best to understand your vision.

A: Starting as a singer, played guitar at 13. Then discovered the piano. I have been performing and writing over 25 years. I've was signed to A&M as a staff writer in my 20's. I continued to perform for most of my life. Playing with Survivor, Venice, When In Rome and many artists and bands through the years.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: I am always thinking about the "song" and how to keep it on track. The idea of the song or piece of music is always dictating the direction. Styles can change but the message should be consistent.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: John Mayer or Keith Urban. Both are incredibly creative and would be fun to work with that level of creative freedom.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?

A: I can help to better craft a lyric and/or production depending on the project.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I work many different ways depending on the project and artist. If I am writing and recording for a client it starts a lot of communication. I usually record most of the parts myself unless there is something specific that is needed.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I have a lot of keyboards including vintage Wurlitzer, Rhodes and Hammond. I am also very tech savvy and have many plugins such as Omnisphere etc. I can provide vocals as well and some guitar.
