Ben Fox Smith on SoundBetter

I was signed at a young age with a band called Stony Sleep on Big Cat Records and then with Serafin on Elektra Records. I've made lots of albums in an array of studios around the world with producers like D.Sardy, John Cornfield, Machine, KK and Ian Caple... and I've toured with fancy people like Muse and Frank Black.

My interests are broad, ranging from very heavy rock/metal to very light Pop/Electronica/Classical.
I started producing my own records with a 4 track recorder and now have an excellent little studio set-up with nice guitars, mics, amps, plugins, keys and a piano. I have an alternative rock background and perhaps this is my specialty though I enjoy being unpredictable and experimental while retaining cohesion.
I'm also grade 8 piano :)

Send me an email through 'Contact' button above and I'll get back to you asap.

    Ben did such a great work (translation and voice track for my song). I'm very happy with the result. A total pro!

    Stellar experience! Ben brought my song to life with his amazing vocals and brilliant guitars. We were targeting at a sort-of cover version of one of my old songs and Ben's contribution was literally breathtaking. Ben is easy to work with, fast, patient, and committed. Hire him!

    As an amateur, I turned to Ben for advice in a studio setting in recreating some songs as a passion project. What I didn’t realize was that I was working with a brilliant musician and guide through the musical process from concept, production, mixing and mastering at his studios. In addition, Ben is patient, shepherding a rookie like myself through countless takes, always encouraging and always kind and constructive with criticism. He is a veritable pleasure to work with. I encourage anyone to have a discussion with Ben on their musical goals.

    I am a Prog Rock composer and regularly call on Ben Fox Smith for whatever I may need for my often ambitious projects - some tight rythm guitars, vocal layering, Romantic piano work, mixing and mastering - he performs all these tasks professionally, accomadatingly and at great prices.
