Austin P. McKenzie on SoundBetter

I want to support you as an artist. At the end of the day, I just love music. Let's make it work.

After starring in the Broadway revival of "Spring Awakening" and ABC's "When We Rise" in 2015, I decided to relocate to LA to not only continue working as an actor, but seriously pursue my lifelong passion of writing music. Since then, I have put out two studio albums and am now working on my third which is set to come out late 2020. Two of my songs have been bought for film and television.

I typically charge $200 for most of my work, but I am flexible.

I can provide vocals, lyrics for music, melodies for lyrics, collaboration, piano instrumentation, a full original song, sheet music, etc.

All of my music is available everywhere (iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Youtube, etc.). My instagram is @austineyes

Austin has a great tone to his voice and I enjoyed working with him. He was eager to listen and take feedback. I would work with him again.

I’m endorsing Austin without even having worked with him Just listening to his song it’s unique Will definitely use him in near future
byJordan Plotner
Not only is Austin an incredibly talented singer, a thoughtful songwriter, and a deeply knowledgeable musician, but he is one of the kindest and most sincere humans I've ever had the pleasure to have known. In the time we've worked together (I produced his upcoming EP) I have improved as a musician, and have been pushed as an artist, but I have also come away with a friend whom I trust and admire deeply. Any project would be lucky to have Austin onboard!

(Also - he's going to be a superstar pretty soon, so I'd try to work with him while you still can!!)

Interview with Austin P. McKenzie

Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Most commonly, I write music and lyrics for musicians, vocalists, or film/tv/theater.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: When it comes to writing or collaborating with other people, I always begin by discussing what exactly they are looking for or what their musical sound is like. I then immediately jump into writing at my piano both vocals, lyrics, and piano. I usually do the writing on my own and send ideas to the client as I go to ensure that I am on the right path. I have written with clients before and am willing/able to do so.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: The "signature" or advantage I bring to a song is my vulnerable and literature-like lyrics. My melodies and piano tunes are deep yet simple.
