The art of music production

Making a great record that will stand the test of time is no small feat. From pre-production to tracking and mixing, there are many creative and technical decisions to be made along the way. Whether Will is working with an artist making their first recording, or a seasoned pro who has been making music for decades, his goal is to provide the support and guidance they need to perform their best in the studio.

With dozens of records under his belt, Will knows that building a collaborative and trusting relationship with the artist is key to music production. He takes the time to get to know you and your music; to understand where you're coming from and the message you want to convey. With this knowledge, he can help you strengthen your songs and make a record you're truly proud of.

Why work with Will?

"I've worked with Will onstage and in the studio for almost 20 years now. His talent and versatility (bass, piano, guitar, mandolin, accordion, vocals, and probably oud and sitar if available) are hard to beat. And yet it's his sensitivity as a producer that is really Will's finest quality. I'm a singer, and it's rare to find someone on the other side of the glass who listens and feels like Will does. He grasps the heart of a song, understands its message, and maybe more importantly, can sense its potential. And then, Will has the patience, the ethic, and the talent to pull the best performance out of the artist and to build arrangements that make the song soar. This is no small feat. It takes a rare blend of selflessness and self-assuredness."

"People throw around the word "genius" too easily these days. I do not. I believe Will is a musical genius. It's in his blood and his bones. Combine that with his professionalism and good naturedness, and there's no one out there I'd rather work with."

DAVID BERKELEY

Award-winning singer-songwriter and author

"When I asked [other artists] how it was working with Will, every one seemed to glow and talk about the joy he brought to the process, the emotional support, the kindness, and the brotherhood. Everyone spoke of Will like family. THAT sounded like a producer I wanted to work with."

"Never have I felt like I've finished the production process with an album that's come this close to realizing our original vision. ...And that's mostly a testament to Will's sometimes tight and sometimes loose hold on the reins."

DANNY SCHMIDT

Singer-songwriter

"Will Robertson is the consummate professional. His talent as an engineer only rivals his talent as a multi-instrumentalist musician. I love both the process of producing with him and the product that our collaboration yields."

"While there are plenty of producers out there, the reason I'll keep coming back to Will is because he is a mensch of a human."

BETH SCHAFER

Singer-songwriter, musician and spiritual leader

"Will possesses incredible musicality and sensitivity towards a project, working above and beyond to help the artist realise their vision. Whether it be producing, playing or scoring, what Will brings to the table will enhance your art the way you want it to be enhanced."

"He is so great to be around in the studio and is also one of the most professional collaborators I’ve ever worked with."

BEN PARKER

Songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist
