Rett Smith on SoundBetter

Professional session guitarist with credits that include: Republic Records, UMG, SONY Music, Jessica Lea Mayfield, Hudson Mohawke, Blood Red Shoes, Imperial Records + more [NEW TO SOUNDBETTER DISCOUNT!]

I've been a major label signed solo-artist for 8 years and have worked on countless sessions as a writer / arranger / and primary guitarist for just as long.

I've been privileged to record with amazing producers including Joe Nicolo (The Fugees, Lauryn Hill, Aerosmith, Bob Dylan, Billy Joel)
I'm here to serve the song and the artist's vision, and tend to lean more towards blues-rock and indie guitar stylings.
I also love playing slide guitar(electric & acoustic) finger style guitar, acoustic playing of all kinds.

I'm fortunate to be endorsed by Gretsch guitars and Matchless amps. I use UA Apollo interfaces and Logic X, (can use Protools as well)

Feel free to reach out to discuss your needs and I look forward to playing on your record!

    Rett was great to work with! I really enjoyed getting to be a part of his album and am stoked for his music to get out into the world. Was really a pleasure and hope we get to work together again in the future.

    It was my absolute pleasure to record percussion & sounds for Rett. The song sounded very inspiring. We discussed the approach to the song before I started recording and I love how open he is to creative input by the musicians he works with. That way he establishes a creative exchange which can often be missed while recording remotely. Highly recommended.
