Bobby Abbott on SoundBetter

Let me record rock/blues piano or organ tracks in stereo for your song. I play a 5' 3" Yamaha grand piano and own several keyboards including a Hammond XK-1c. I have been recording and performing for many years. My style is similar to Nicky Hopkins, Chuck Leavell, Elton John, or Benmont Tench.

I typically record with two to four condenser mics through RME or Neve preamps directly to DAW in 24/96. If preferred, I can record at lower resolution, 24/48, etc. Depending on your needs, I will play through the entire track, or just in certain sections, such as a piano break. I will deliver a stereo .wav file to you, normally in a couple weeks, often times less.

Please send me your mix starting at 00:00, with info about what you're looking for, and I'll shoot you a price. Discounts are available if you need multiple instruments on the same song. :)

Contact me through the green button above and let's get to work.

    Bobby was a pleasure to work with!
    Super professional, excellent communicator and he made sure I have everything I needed to complete the session.
    After providing him with the material he was curious about my micing techniques and asked for further info, which is always appreciated when clients are curious about my work and process.

    I'll be happy to work with Bobby again!
