Austin P. McKenzie on SoundBetter

I want to support you as an artist. At the end of the day, I just love music. Let's make it work. Leave a review and get half off!

After starring in the Broadway revival of "Spring Awakening" and ABC's "When We Rise" in 2015, I decided to relocate to LA to not only continue working as an actor, but seriously pursue my lifelong passion of writing music. Since then, I have put out two studio albums and am now working on my third which is set to come out in the summer of 2022. Two of my songs have been bought for film and television.

I can provide vocals, lyrics for music, melodies for lyrics, collaboration, piano instrumentation, a full original song, sheet music, etc.

All of my music is available everywhere (iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Youtube, etc.). My instagram is @austineyes

    Austin is a great vocalist and professional musician. He delivered great vocal tracks and went the extra mile by delivering his own ideas as well. Will definitely work with him again!

    Austin provided some amazing vocals. Added some real character to the song. The stems were professionally delivered and organised. It was a very quick turn around aswell. I look forward to working with him again. Highly recommend.

    Austin has a great tone to his voice and I enjoyed working with him. He was eager to listen and take feedback. I would work with him again.

    Not only is Austin an incredibly talented singer, a thoughtful songwriter, and a deeply knowledgeable musician, but he is one of the kindest and most sincere humans I've ever had the pleasure to have known. In the time we've worked together (I produced his upcoming EP) I have improved as a musician, and have been pushed as an artist, but I have also come away with a friend whom I trust and admire deeply. Any project would be lucky to have Austin onboard!

    (Also - he's going to be a superstar pretty soon, so I'd try to work with him while you still can!!)

Interview with Austin P. McKenzie

  1. Q: What are you working on at the moment?

  2. A: My third album is finished and will be released soon. Currently I am starting to produce my next album.

  3. Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?

  4. A: Matt Dougherty- he's a genius.

  5. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  6. A: Vocals; whether that be me recording vocals or composing background vocals for someone.

  7. Q: What do you bring to a song?

  8. A: When writing, my "signature" or advantage I bring to a song is my vulnerable and literature-like lyrics. My melodies and piano tunes are deep yet simple. For vocals, my background is vocal performance is my greatest asset.

  9. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  10. A: I have a full professional music studio.

  11. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  12. A: Most commonly, I write music and lyrics for musicians, vocalists, or film/tv/theater. However, I would love to record demo or final vocals for more artists.

  13. Q: What's your typical work process?

  14. A: When it comes to writing or collaborating with other people, I always begin by discussing what exactly they are looking for or what their musical sound is like. I then immediately jump into writing at my piano both vocals, lyrics, and piano. I usually do the writing on my own and send ideas to the client as I go to ensure that I am on the right path. I have written with clients before and am willing/able to do so.
