Vocalist, Topliner, Songwriter

Q: What do you like most about your job?

A: Playing back the final master of a song you've been working on and saying "We made that!"

Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?

A: I would love to work with Mac Ayres because our styles and vocal tones are very similar.

Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

A: My promise to my clients is that you are satisfied with the end result. This is why I allow 2 free rounds of small revisions. I promise to always produce the best work that I can, and I will never send back anything I believe to be mediocre. If I feel I am not able to produce my best work for your track or that my style does not match with yours, I will let you know within 1 day of you sending the track and you will not be charged.

Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

A: My main questions for my clients are: - What overall vibe/feel are you aiming for with this song? - Do you have a reference track? - Do you have a particular structure you would like me to follow? I so, please provide time stamps for these.

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A: I always advise my clients who are using my services to purchase the harmony arrangements for a small extra fee. A song may sound incomplete and flat without harmonies as they add flavour and depth to the song. The way I approach harmonies is different for every track that I work on and I really do put a lot of thought into how they sound.

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

A: I have been singing since the age of 12 and have been writing music for around 10 years as a hobby. I have done many collaborations and worked with a number of different producers during this time but have only begun charging for my services within the past year.

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: My style is laid-back R&B with catchy, memorable choruses. Being a versatile singer who writes in many genres however, my style is not static and I always try to mould my sound to complement the track I am working on.

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

A: I specialise in R&B, Neo-Soul and Afrobeat tracks. I have also written House, Pop, Lofi and Amapiano songs for other producers.

Q: What's your strongest skill?

A: My strongest skill is the melodic element of my songwriting as well as harmony arrangements. Learning to write and play music from such a young age has made me understand the

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: I listen to the track a few times to get the feel for it. After that, I'll go into Logic and start writing. The way I write always begins with melody first and I will improvise over the track until I get something I like. After that, lyrics will follow. Depending on how well-suited the track is to my writing style, I can complete a whole song anywhere between a few hours and 2 weeks.

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

A: I record everything from home using my Rode NT-2A Microphone plugged into my Scarlett 2i2 interface, tracking my vocals in Logic Pro X. I find this setup works best for me, but if someone specifically asks for that 'studio' sound, I have easy access to a number of studios.

Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?

A: I am inspired by every artist that I listen to as I learn something different from each of them. I would say in terms of production and vocal arranging (and work ethic!), I am deeply inspired by Jacob Collier. With songwriting and production, Bruno Mars and D'Mile have inspired me for as long as I can remember.

Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

A: The most common work I do is songwriting (melody and lyrics) for producers and providing the vocals for these songs. I also write and arrange harmonies for other artists and provide the vocals for these too.
