I help pop and indie singer-songwriters make songs that sound unmistakably like them — only better.
What makes working with me different?
Most producers put their sound on everything they touch. My approach is different. Before we record a single note, I take time to understand who you are as an artist — your story, your influences, your vision, and what this specific song needs to do for you. That process is what I call The Map, and it's the reason the music we make together sounds like you at your best, not like a produced record.
From there, I bring everything: songwriting, custom beat production, vocal direction, editing, mixing, mastering — twenty years of craft, all of it shaped around your sound and your brand. Not mine.
I'm based in Brooklyn but I collaborate with artists everywhere.
If your music matters to you, it'll matter to me. Let's talk about what we can make together.

"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.

"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!!”

"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.”

“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.”
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
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.
THE FOLLOW THROUGH
A great song without a release strategy goes unheard. In this phase I work with you as a consultant — helping you map out your approach to PR, playlisting, distribution, and positioning so your music reaches people beyond your existing audience.
