Singers

I've been producing and engineering some very talented singers over the past years.  They have excellent pitch, nice vocal quality and great personality.  But, there's one thing that most of them don't have going for them.  They don't write their own songs, or have access to a good songwriter.  Getting noticed by covering someone else's songs doesn't get you noticed for long.  If you are serious about surviving in this business, you have to bring something special to the party.  Artists think they are the greatest at what they do.  One thing I've learned since I was very young, there's always somebody better than you.  Accept it... live with it.  In this business, rejection is a fact of life.  I think it's a huge plus to be a singer/songwriter.  Especially one who plays an instrument.  If you need some guidance, contact me.
