Some comments:

"Jeffrey is a brilliant, sensitive producer and a total delight to work with. From the first time we met, I felt seen and supported as a musician. He helped me develop my material as well as my performance so by the time we got into the studio, I felt confident, excited and prepared. Thanks to his years of recording experience, he brought a rich and colorful pallet of musical ideas to our project and had no problem finding top notch musicians to bring those ideas to life. In fact, his secret weapon may be his uncanny ability to communicate with people, teasing out exceptional performances from each player. He made recording a joy for everyone involved and I’m fiercely proud of the work we did together on this album."

“Working with Jeffrey Wood has exceeded all my expectations. Jeffrey’s attention to detail throughout the recording , editing and mixing process is extraordinary. All along the journey, he consistently checked with me to ensure we were going in the direction I had wished. I began this project thinking the end product would be the real reward, but I’ve received so much on top of that. I’ve learned and grown so much as an artist, had a ball doing it, and I can’t wait to make my next record with Jeffrey.”
