My songwriting has earned spots on Spotify's Fresh Finds, Fresh Finds Pop, and Fresh Finds Indie. Whether it's ironing out a second verse, figuring out why a chorus isn't hitting the way you want it to, laying down vocals, or writing a killer melody, I want to help create something great that conveys your emotions to a worldwide audience.
Songwriting is more than a career for me and I care deeply about the music that you're making and the story that needs to be told. My lyrics and songwriting have earned me hundreds of thousands of views on Tik Tok and Spotify, and the songs I've written for clients have been placed across Spotify Editorial Playlists.
Not only will the songs we write reflect the true emotion and story you want to convey, but they will appeal to a wider audience. Whether it's ironing out a second verse, figuring out why a chorus isn't hitting the way you want it to, or fleshing out an idea into a full song, I can help you develop a song and have it ready for production.
I am also an accomplished studio singer with a smooth, John Mayer / Damien Rice style voice. I'd be happy to lay vocals down on your track and build out the harmonies. I can also take pre-written lyrics and develop the right melody for you.
Hope to hear from you soon!

check_circleVerifiedRoss impressed the hell out of me. He took my lyrics and not only composed an amazing tune, sonically capturing the mood of the piece, but he also added his gentle voice tempered with genuine emotion. The outcome was a song that exceeded my expectations. Ross truly is as advertised on his site: songwriter and singer. But more than that, he cares deeply for the song he's working on. It will be hard to find a more conscientious artist. I'm so grateful he shared his talents with me.
check_circleVerifiedAlways a pleasure to work with. Excellent artist with great range. You should work with him.

check_circleVerified (Client)Ross was a great client. Was very clear about what he wanted and a great collaborator. A-1 gentleman.
Ross is an incredible songwriter with incredible flexibility, listened really well to what my vision was, and always presented me with multiple routes for me to choose from. He's extremely personable and comfortable to talk to, and I was able to open up about my songwriting to him. 10/10
Ross is awesome! He came to our session with heaps of ideas and asked questions about me as an artist to tailor those ideas to me and my music. I was extremely impressed!
Ross is an incredible musician with a soulful voice and the most beautifully delicate vibrato you've ever heard. As well as having gorgeous vocals, he is also a talented songwriter and storyteller. I highly recommend him for any project you're looking to create, he'll blow you away!
Interview with Ross Newhouse
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Jensen McRae, she's a fierce writer and an unbelievable singer
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Bob Dylan, Jack Van Cleaf, Adam Melchor, Miya Folick
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: I like to explore the gray areas of love and heartbreak. Somewhere between the widespread appeal of Coldplay, the melody and humor Paul Simon, and the honesty of Elliott Smith,
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Folk and indie, however I played in an RnB band and like to dive into that genre too. I recently discovered my knack for pop music as well. The cleverness of my folk lyrics and my sense of humor combined are wonderful for hooky pop lyrics.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: A song should feel complete with only a few elements, the rest are complementary to those core sounds.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: I bring clever, viceral storytelling that leaves the listener with a deep understanding of the artist behind the song
