As a professional in the music industry for 20 years I offer a comprehensive range of services from Record Producing, Arranging & Songwriting.

Having worked with legendary artists worldwide, I believe that many talented bands and solo artists just lack experience and guidance to produce that great sound.  

 I think many would benefit from the development process that prepares the Artist and the Music to produce the best record they are capable of.

I can get you the results you seek.

 

Dan Sprigg

With many years of experience in recording studios, I have been fortunate to work with many great talents (artists and producers) in a variety of roles.

Every session has its own challenges but ultimately the songs and the integrity of the band have shone through.

My intention is to reflect the band’s perception of their music and I am willing to help with preproduction, arrangement, and performance. I will let my opinions be heard and if the band chooses to pursue an idea, I’ll make sure it happens.

I do not have stock sounds and techniques that I apply rigidly to every band in every recording session. Every band is different and your own tastes and concerns will be addressed.
