Session work and recording

Rating: 5 out of 5.

“I asked Sarah to compose and record a bassline for a song I’e been working on. It saved me the long hassle of searching for a bassist and was done in a matter of days. The song sounds so much fuller now and isn’t far off being thrown out to the public.”

– Dan Hall, independent musician
