Jeff Crerie Testimonials

Jeff Crerie and I began working together in 2003 at his lovely and quirky studio, Utmosis. While I had performed on two Grammy Award-winning recordings as a vocalist in the past, I had never made a recording of an original song when I met Jeff.

I came to him with the idea we might record one song together. That project quickly turned into a second, and in just two short years we made an album that launched me into a successful, professional career as a full-time singer/songwriter.

The initial album we made together lead to an immediate signing to Tommy Boy Records based on the recording alone. The eventual 2008 album release, "Hide Nothing" includes two songs co-written with Jeff.

When you work alongside Jeff Crerie you quickly realize he is from another planet -- one where creativity, patience and electrified collaboration are the fossil fuels. Jeff seemed to read my mind as we mixed and engineered my songs together, taking joy in charting new territory together and relying on our ears and instincts to lead the way.

I would recommend Jeff for any recording or writing project as his talents and motivations are of the utmost purity and elegance. Please feel free to contact me for further elaboration.

Sincerely,

I can't even begin to explain how working with Jeff Crerie helped kick my songwriting into high gear and how much I learned in the process of developing and recording my solo album. He is a calm creative force who offers great direction and brings out the best in my performances. I rarely can keep a creative block going when we're partnering on a project. Most importantly, I have a renewed vision of my work and its possibilities.

Working with Jeff Crerie on my EP was an amazing experience! He creates a wonderfully, safe, open, and supportive enviornment, while still bringing new and fresh ideas to the table. His years of expertise as a producer, engineer, composer, and musician make for someone who will make your musical ideas come to life! I came to Jeff with some very unorthodox ideas of the sort of acoustic sounds I wanted to create for my album, and he not only fully realized my ideas with me, he exceeded my expectations! Within just a few sessions, we had created a workflow that allowed us to track vocals, instruments, etc quickly and efficiently, while mixing and mastering along the way. I could not be happier with end result of the songs I have done with Jeff, and I would recommend him to anyone that is in need! UTMOSIS is the way to go!

Jeff and I joined our creative process together to produce and write my latest album, Take It From Me. We had a great time bouncing melodies, lyrics and music off of one another. Some of the songs went places I had thought of going before, like Piovendo Per Te, but just never had the time and structure to pursue. Each of the songs has either a challenging aspect or an element of just pure and simple fun. At this time we're involved with some remixes and collaborations with other producers across the world, and Jeff's studio ability, creativity, and thoughtfulness regarding the material make them all the more solid upon completion. Thanks Jeff, keep doing what you do so well.

Working with Jeff has been a wonderful, positive, and FUN experience! He is incredibly insightful, encouraging, and he's a supremely gifted and talented producer and songwriter. Every time I work with Jeff I learn something new, and I leave our sessions feeling inspired and excited about music and songwriting. Not only does he excel at what he does, but he is always willing to go above and beyond for his clients, too. He has a level of integrity that is hard to find these days. I highly recommend him.
