Chris del Camino on SoundBetter

I don’t just play parts—I elevate songs. Whether it’s soaring saxophone lines, lush flute and reed arrangements, or textured guitars, keys, melodica as well as vocals, songwriting and production, I bring a signature sound that cuts through and connects.

What up! I’m Chris del Camino — multi-instrumentalist, producer, and songwriter from California, now based in the Netherlands.

For most of the 2010s, I was on tour with reggae/pop act HIRIE as a founding member, co-writer, and multi-instrumentalist. I've helped shape songs on all 5 of the band's full lengh albums through collaborative songwriting, pre-production, and recording, and on the road I became known for crafting immersive live moments—building custom backtracks, layering transitions, and creating those “in-the-zone” moments that lift a show from good to unforgettable.

As a session player, I specialize in saxophone but thrive when I can expand the sonic palette—flute, melodica, accordion, guitars, keys, or synths—to bring richness and unexpected color to a track. My style blends precision with creativity, whether I’m writing a soaring sax line, stacking lush wind arrangements, or producing dynamic pop backdrops.

As a songwriter & collaborator I love co-writing and co-inspiring. My strengths are in shaping songs with intentionality—introducing unique chord progressions, carving out space in busy lyrics, designing push/pull moments through chords, rhythm, or production shifts. My goal is always to help songs breathe, evolve, and move people.

Above all passionate about collab, bringing ideas, and pushing music into its most impactful form.
