Flourish (Michael Keefe) on SoundBetter

My name is Michael Keefe and I make music under the name Flourish. I'm a producer/songwriter/composer/multi-instrumentalist. I play the Saxophone at Grade 8 level (jazz and classical) and I also play keys. I'm offering a variety of musical services to make the sounds in your head become a reality!

I grew up with a classical training in both Piano and Saxophone and have been composing and producing from the age of 10. From that young age I've had an immense passion for music, particularly Electronic and Pop. I worked on my music from my bedroom tirelessly until eventually capturing the attention of Sigala and being signed to his publishing company 'Lighthouse'.

My music has had great support from Radio 1 DJ Jack Saunders and I've worked with a variety of artists such as Kideko and Luke Pritchard. I have experience working in a variety of genres including EDM, Pop, Indie, R&B and even music for short films. I have also written, produced and performed music for the band 'second thoughts'.

I'm keen on helping you with your musical ventures in a number of ways! That includes production, mixing, mastering, session saxophone/keys or composition. Perhaps your track isn't sounding quite how you intended and you need some help to get it across the finish line. Maybe you have a media project that requires music and audio to fit a brief... I'm here to help!

I'm patient, easy to work with and I'm dedicated to giving you only the best results possible.

Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.
