What are people saying?

Vanilla, Oxford, UK

"Steve is a highly talented individual, with musical accomplishments across a range of genres. It was a pleasure collaborating with him on our first remix EP, and I look forward to putting out more music with him. A thoroughly nice fellow."

Just As Good As Ezra, Pittsburgh, PA

"I've worked with Steve on both an electronic chillwave project and a more traditional instrumental EP, and in everything, he's been disciplined, creative, and a great collaborator. Steve knows songcraft on both a technical and aesthetic level, and I couldn't recommend his production services more highly."

Are you a songwriter or band in need of advice or coaching?

Songwriters often get stuck writing music in the same genre over and over again — overlooking unseen potential for their songs. Together, we'll review and discuss the potential in your songs and brainstorm ideas.

Writing and producing music is my passion and expertise. I have 15 years of experience recording and writing music and am well versed in many genres of music.

Let's discover new musical possibilities!

Need a vocal coach? Need to tighten your playing technique?

I play guitar, bass, drums, program music, and sing. We can discuss different singing/playing techniques to better craft your songwriting abilities.

Have a band?

I'll sit-in on a rehearsal.

Have an idea for a song?

Let's write it together!

Contact me about coaching.

Are you a songwriter or band in need of a producer?

A music producer helps to create, shape, and mold a piece of music. I will creatively guide and direct the process of making and/or recording your music.

Many factors greatly influence the outcome of recorded music, including recording techniques, amp/guitar selection, vocal harmonies, special effects, song arrangement, and more. I'll bring new light to your project and tighten your songwriting abilities.

Looking for a recording studio to experiment with different ideas/techniques?

I have a small recording studio in my home where we can make beats and experiment with different sounds.

Need a studio musician?

I'll perform guitar, bass, drums/percussion, program, and/or sing in your music. We can even record the tracks in my home studio.

Need custom beats for rap, hip-hop, or R&B?

I have plenty of beats already made which you can purchase for $150/beat. We can also get together and write custom beats. Check out some of my beats on SoundCloud.

Looking for a recording engineer?

We can record music in my home studio. I'll even mix your tracks, coordinate with your mastering engineer, and prepare them for mastering.

Note: I can master your songs, but it's not my specialty. If your in a pickle, I will try my best to hook you up with a quick master.
