10 year singer-songwriter with 5 albums released. I love creating and bringing original works to life, focusing on lyrical depth and dynamic vocals.
I can provide you an array of services particularly dealing with songwriting, vocal production and arrangement, and vocal comping. Lyrics and toplining are my specialty. I can attach thematic, honest, and/or catchy lyrics to already made melodies. I can create pop hooks and intriguing melodies for your lyrics. Or I can do both and add to the world of your production. I can also take vocal ideas and comp them for an alternate take of your own melodies.
Would love to hear from you. Click the contact button above to get in touch.
