Folk Session Singer

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

A: I am very proud of the song I released with Noam Bartov called "Wartime Lullaby". We wrote the song together for a project (he arranged it and composed it, I wrote the lyrics and sang), then we performed it. Afterward he wanted to produce it so we went ahead and produced it and it came out so much more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. Look it up on all streaming platforms!

Q: Can you share one music production tip?

A: Get to know a song well before you start working on it - then the singing will come naturally out of your strong relationship with the song.

A: I am drawn to folk and singer songwriter music, but love working on all types of music that excite me.

Q: What's your strongest skill?

A: Singing in tune, and making a melody sound comfortable.

Q: What do you bring to a song?

A: My love of singing. My melodious and clear vocals. My unique perspective on your melody. My playful experimentation with the melody. My best!

Q: What's your typical work process?

A: We start by discussing the project and I can get an idea of what exactly you want. Once you send me an instrumental with a vocal guide (can be bad quality, I just need the melody and lyrics to use as reference), I listen to the song many times to become familiar with it. I bring my best self to a song when I know it well! Once I'm ready to record, I take it to my recording space, do a vocal warm up, and get recording! I record multiple takes and send you 2-3 of the best ones, so that way you can use your favorite take or comp from all of them. (Or use them all and have a double vocal!)

Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
