Jonny Hockings on SoundBetter

I will mix, master, vocal produce and record guitars for your project! I use great session singers to record your songs and I write lyrics and melody. I would love to hear about your vision and find out how I can help to achieve it!

I moved to London at 16 and got a degree in Contemporary Music Performance. I then toured with several signed artists playing venues such as the Royal Albert Hall and Brixton academy. I also completed tours supporting James Bay, Tori Kelly and Chance the Rapper.
At 20 I decided to become a full time writer/ producer and have since been picked up by Tileyard Management (Ella Eyre and Sigala) under Victoria Becks. I work from my Studio at Tileyard in Kings Cross.

I've worked with many signed artists including Karen Harding, Samm Henshaw and Space Primates.
I use only top spec equipment and software to ensure the best results. I believe that each artist has their own unique voice and my job as a producer and mixer/ masterer is to showcase that in it's strongest possible format using the music as a foundation.
