About Frank Michels
Hi, and welcome to my site.
I operate a song demo business in Nashville, Tennessee specializing
in good quality, reasonably priced recordings.
Most folks who want a "demonstration" recording of
their songs think they only have two options: an $800 a song
demo cut with great musicians in a top studio, or a cut-rate
demo mill session where club players hurry through ten songs
an hour.
Now there is a third choice.
I am a multi-instrumentalist who has spent the last 25 years
performing with such country stars as Brenda Lee, Tanya Tucker,
Deborah Allen, Ronnie McDowell, and currently, Michelle Wright.
I play guitar, fiddle, mandolin, banjo, dobro, bass, sampled
drums and some keyboards.
As a songwriter, this allows me to record my own songs at home,
playing all the parts myself. And over the past five years,
I have recorded over 1,000 songs for other songwriters who need
a great sounding demo, but have limited funds.
My demos include your choice of either a male
or female professional Nashville demo singer. Right now I have
a great baritone male singer, David Ward, who can move easily
from George Strait to Trace Adkins to Elvis. My female singer,
Debra Gordon, has an amazing voice somewhere between Sara Evans
and Martina McBride, and will no doubt have her own record deal
before long.
You can choose what instruments you want on your song, or just
leave it to me.
I spend about 10 hours recording, mixing, and mastering each
song, so you can be sure you are getting a quality custom recording.
My turnaround time is generally about 2 weeks.
I will send you a cd with your song, and also a version without
vocals in case you want to put your voice on the song. All this
for a low $325 a song.
If you just write lyrics, I will compose a custom
melody specifically for your song, for no extra charge.
Other demo services may shoe-horn your lyrics into some existing
music they have used dozens of times.
Here are a few samples
of my work that you can click on to listen.
To order, or if you have questions, contact me
via email, and tell
me about your project.
If I agree that I can do it, I will ask you to send me either
a cd or cassette tape through the mail or an mp3 over the internet,
plus a check or money order for $325.00 US
I also accept Paypal, for a $10 surcharge to cover their fees.
Thanks a lot!
Frank Michels
