A six-hour journey to shape, refine, and record your original song.
Service Description
This isn't just a recording session — it's a creative companion experience for singer-songwriters who want to bring a song to life with care, clarity, and support. Whether you’re nervous about stepping into the studio or simply want someone to walk with you through the process, this session is designed to meet you where you are. We’ll begin with a 2-hour creative planning session to review your song, refine structure and arrangement, and talk tone, vibe, and vision. Then we’ll meet for a 4-hour private recording session — in a calm, inspiring space — to capture your best takes in a way that honors your voice and intention. You’ll receive a professionally mixed .mp3 of your final song, ready to share or simply keep for yourself. 🔸 Supportive, coaching-style direction 🔸 Professional sound setup in an ambient, inspiring space 🔸 Flexible tone — polished demo or performance keepsake 🔸 Ideal for songwriters, poets, or musicians working through new ideas 🔸 Gentle pacing with creative room to breathe This offering is best for solo singer-songwriters, acoustic guitar or keyboard-based musicians, or artists wanting to explore a raw but authentic sound. 🎨 Want More? Let’s Dream It Up Together. Add-ons like graphic design, promotional artwork, behind-the-scenes video, or full-length music video production are available on a project-by-project basis. Have an idea? I’d love to hear it — just let me know during our intake session and we’ll create something meaningful together.
