John is amazing at what he does, and he can do a lot of things. I recorded an album with him and he took me through the entire process and helped me understand all the steps. I had a dozen songs and vague ideas. He helped make this into a full album, professionally recorded, produced, and distributed. I never thought I'd be on Spotify, much less sound this good!

He is very technically skilled, but even more importantly he is honest, acts with integrity, and puts the artists first.
