About
I am a music producer, recording artist, and multi-instrumentalist with over 12 years of experience in studio production and performance. My independent project, Sonny Grin, has received international radio support (including Triple J and BBC), millions of streams, and releases through respected labels such as Local Talk (SWE), Sidekick Music (FR), and etcetc (AUS).
Alongside my own work, I collaborate in the studio and remotely with artists around the world. Spanning genres from electronic and RnB to indie and folk, I specialise in creating dynamic, organic productions that combine live instrumentation with electronic elements and production. I pride myself on my communication skills, flexibility and ability to meet project deadlines.
