    Dez is a world class talent! His melodies are fresh and his runs are precise and tasteful. He’s got great instincts and a one of a kind tone and texture in his voice. Get him on your track while you still can!

    Dez Duron is the real deal. I know from working with him that he flourishes with both little and lots of direction. He’s incredibly easy and fun to work with. He’s meticulous with every vocal performance to make it absolutely fantastic! His voice can fit such a wide variety of genres.

  2. A: I usually work on Pop, Adult Contemporary Pop, singer songwriter and some RnB

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

  4. A: I loved working on Anthony Evan's album. He is someone I have respected for a long time and it meant a lot to me to be able to lend my voice to one of his projects.

  5. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  6. A: Brandon Chase Chris Biano

  7. Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?

  8. A: I promise to put my heart and soul into the song as if it were my own,

  9. Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?

  10. A: I ask for influences and references (the more specific the better). I also ask for the emotion they want the song to portray.

  11. Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

  12. A: I would say to express what you want the song to sound like and never hold back critiques. This is your baby. I want you to love it!

  13. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  14. A: I have been a professional in the music industry for 9 years. I moved to Los Angeles in 2011. I was on NBC's The Voice and was a Top 8 Finalist. Since then I have been writing and singing as a profession. Spending time in Los Angeles, Nashville, and New York and writing with some of the best producers and songwriters in the business. As well as singing all over the world.

  15. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  16. A: I think my strongest skill is my ability to adapt while still bringing my unique take to a song.

  17. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  18. A: I have a duet Apogee and an SM7B in my home studio. For some projects I go to my friend's studio down the street but my set up usually gets the job done.

  19. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  20. A: I do a lot of co-writes as well as session singing. Whether that be singing my own original material or singing demos for other peoples work.

  22. A: I'm working on my first EP as an artist as well as writing Christmas songs for a friend's EP

  23. Q: What do you like most about your job?

  24. A: I love the joy of creating. Music soothes me like nothing else. Creating a song that didn't exist before is invigorating, but so is diving into the emotion of a song that is already written.

  25. Q: How would you describe your style?

  26. A: My personal artist style is Laid Back, Grooving, Adult Pop. I love all styles of music so I like how writing and singing demos allows me to explore the other genres I love as well.

  27. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  28. A: I bring efficiency and emotion to a song. I am well versed and experienced with different feels, types and genres of songs.

  29. Q: What's your typical work process?

  30. A: I usually start with getting inspiration. Listening to the influences the client has listed as well as some others that fit the vibe. Getting myself in a creative space. Then begin to groove out to the track or playing myself. Then you have to put the rubber to the road and get to work. I find honestly this to be the most inspiring part of it all. Coming at it from different angles until you find just the right fit.
