Elliot Heinz on SoundBetter

Los Angeles based studio drummer with 15+ years of experience, getting you the pro drum tracks you need to finish your songs.

Let me take your songs to the next level with some authentic drum tracks. Sure, you can get started with a cheap drum loop, but I want to give you something real to work with. Whether it's re-tracking your scratch drum track or creating one for you, I will be sure to give each project the exact touch that is needed, without getting in the way of your song.

My approach is rooted in jazz, blending elements of discovery, personality, and precision into all genres in my work. Stylistically, I sit somewhere between the likes of folk-rock legend Levon Helm (The Band) and jazz-rock all star Andy Ramsay (Stereolab), though I love to pull out my inner Bonham from time-to-time.

I’m confident that I can deliver you with professional-grade drum and percussion tracks that will really make your songs come to life. Shoot me a message if you’re unsure of where to start so I can get the ball rolling with ideas. I'm also happy to discuss sliding scale rates that fit within your budget.

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

    Elliot is a talented drummer with whom I've had the pleasure of working with for the last few years in my live band. He is a quick study who learns new parts quickly and accurately, and has a great ear for composing his own beats and parts. He is highly skilled and has such a lovely vibe to hang with! You'd be lucky to have him on your project.

    Elliot is an absolute joy to work with. He is extremely versatile in any genre and has a beautiful awareness of how a song or project should be served from the drums. Love this fella!

    Elliot is someone I trust to bring a high level of quality to every aspect of their work. When we've tracked drums together they've been keenly aware of all of the elements that come together to make a great drum recording. They also have a musical ear for arrangement and excellent dynamic control. Being a non-drummer myself, this expertise, attention to detail, and finesse are much appreciated. Overall amazing drummer, teacher, and human!
