Interview with Jordon Henry

Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: How long have I been playing. Long time lol
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: I did a project where I worked on 5 originals and 1 Christmas cover piece for a client in my hometown. I was the bassist in this project and it turned out to be a major success! Super happy about that.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I’m helping a buddy of mine create a jazz fusion album.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Yes! Two people! Ray Nesbit & Darrell Nutt! Some of the most amazing and musically knowledgeable people I’ve had to chance to know and work with.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Digital may be the what’s happening now, but you cant beat the warmth and voicing from the analog.

A: That you have to be talented to be good. It isn’t necessarily true.. time invested beats talent in my opinion.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: Most of the clients I’ve worked with already have bass parts in their song. I usually if they want me to keep the same bassline or add my own to the project.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Try to your best to be specific on what your vision is. If you can accurately convey what you want, the provider can deliver for you. Also, it’s always beneficial to tell the provider the BPM of the song, the bit and sample rate, it just makes everything else streamline and easier for the provider to deliver.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: 1. My bass 2.audio interface lol 3. Some monitors 4. A solar powered power pack for my laptop. 5.a fishing net to capture fish for food 😎

Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: My ear! Growing up and playing in a gospel church has developed my ear so much over the years.

A: I listen to the project first and depending on what the client wants, I’ll either enhance what’s already there or create a line that I hear within the music.

I was the Bassist in this production

Bass ElectricAverage price - $100 per song

Bass tracks are given one revision in a 24 hour period. I'll have to charge for the second take if you want two full bass takes of your song. Let's create some fantastic music together!
