I help pop and indie singer-songwriters make songs that sound unmistakably like them — only better.
What makes working with me different?
Most producers make the song sound like their production. I make it sound like you — with 20 years of craft behind it. Before we record a single note, I map out who you are as an artist, where you're going, and what this song needs to do for your career. That process (what I call The Map) is what separates a song from your song.
If I take on your project — and I'm selective about who I work with — you get full creative partnership: songwriting, beat production, vocal direction, editing, mixing, and mastering. All of it shaped around your voice, your genre, and your brand.
Whether you're in New York, LA, or anywhere else in the world — if you're serious about your music, we can create something exceptional together.
"7 songs recorded and written with Joey netted me over 8 awards, from the American Songwriting Awards and Great American Song to the UK Songwriting Contest. I would not have a career without him." - pop singer/songwriter Nick Deutsch
TESTIMONIALS
Danielle Juhre
"Joey is undoubtedly one of the best producers I've ever worked with and I'm so fortunate to say that I had the opportunity to work with him. He's just as wonderful of a producer as he is a person. Joey has such a great ear and has the ability to take your vision and deliver beyond your expectations. He listens to every request of the artist and works within your time restrictions and you can tell he spends so much time with attention to detail. Looking forward to working with Joey on all future projects.”
TAMARA
“Joey has been an incredible asset in bringing my music to life. I always look forward to working with him because a great product emerges as a result of his hard work, dedication, collaboration of ideas, passion, and fun. Joey is just as passionate as I am in creating the best versions of my songs, and I could not ask anything more from a producer.”
DECORA
Joey Auch is one of the most skilled, professional and well rounded producers I’ve worked with. Joey has a keen ear to the newest trending music while still keeping a fresh mind to what could be next. I like working with him because it’s truly a “no judgment” zone that allows me to explore my artistic expression.
NICK DEUTSCH
"The minute you start a phrase, rhythmic pattern or melodic motif he will pull out just the hook needed and find the perfect passage home. More importantly his heart is in the right place and he believes in his artists. 7 songs recorded and written with Joey netted me over 8 awards, from the American Songwriting Awards and Great American Song to the UK Songwriting Contest. I would not have a career without him!
ERIN BOWMAN
"Not only is he a great producer/co-writer but he's a great guy as well! He really listens to the artist when they tell him what they want but is also great at coming up with fresh new ideas when the artist isn't so sure. He's never finished with something until he really feels like it's his best work and that's really important. He knows what he's doing and he's really fun to work with!!
RACHEL PLATTEN
"I love love love Mr. Joey Auch!"
THE LATEST MUSIC
THE MAP
Before we touch a single instrument, we dig into your story — your artistic identity, your audience, your goals, and what this song or project needs to accomplish. This is the phase that most producers skip. It's the reason why songs with me come out sounding like you.
THE EXECUTION
his is where we build. Songwriting, custom production, vocal direction, beat-making, arranging, editing, mixing, mastering — everything required to take the song to a finished, market-ready release. Every decision is made in service of your sound and your brand. Online or in studio — wherever you are, we make it work.
THE FOLLOW THROUGH
Success requires a strategy (beyond creating the music) to introduce you and your music into the world. In this phase I provide customized consultation and resources you will need to stay on track and accountable.
