Una is hands down the best vocalist I've worked with on here. I was at a dead-end with a song and she brought it back to life! Now the track is better than I ever imagined it to be. She sent me wet & dry vocals, and even sent over a reference track of just the vocals for mixing purposes. If you hire Una, I promise you won't be disappointed. 6 out of 5 stars.

Una is a prolific singer-songwriter and with that skill, she has developed amazing production abilities. She has an amazing ear and is really fun to collaborate with! The back of forth dynamic is so crucial to produce the best track possible.

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I've been a professional song writer since i was 12 years old. My father owned a studio in our home town of massachusetts. I would be invited to sessions and would write with and for other people and myself. I was signed and touring by 14 as an artist. I moved to LA at 17 with my best friend/ guitarist and started an artist development company. Ran myself and my body into the ground working my ass off, and decided to take off all the hats and just wear one...or two.. Here we are!!!

A: I'm pretty quick. If i'm working start to finish on a song, track, and topline/vocal melody and lyric- I will finish all within a 10 hour day. I get in the zone and cannot be stopped (besides the occasional burrito break).
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: Eastlake LA is a small studio in Granada Hills. I own it with Enoch Jensen(renowned mixing engineer: i.e. Rolling Stones), and Justin Fleuriel (Mastering Engineer: i.e. IT soundtrack). We have a long list of rad gear. Of course my favorite is our Neumann U67!
