Trax Testimonials: Nashville Music Producer

Hi, Bill - Well, I've had the CD 5 days now and I think I've already gotten my money's worth of enjoyment out of it! You did such a great job...you have such integrity... you always made me feel like, if mine were not the only record you were working on, it was certainly the most important one!


Your suggestions for arrangements were always right on; you made my songs so much more than I ever thought they would be. You went above and beyond what we agreed upon and I am praying daily that God will bless you for it.


Thank you for your guitar work and please extend my thanks again to the keyboard player and most especially to (your singer) Amy.

"Grateful" (*smile*), Denise Landis, Franklin, TN

We had a Country song that needed artistic input from a Nashville engineer/producer and Bill’s name came up. His creative feedback, musical guidance, consummate professionalism and the magic that he finally weaved delivered far beyond our expectations. Thanks Bill. It was an absolute pleasure and I hope this is one of many”. Gary Jones, Founder, LGV Music, London.

Thank you for producing my song demo. The chord changes you suggested made the song sound much better.

I submitted the demo to a local band and they will be performing, Echo of His Voice, at a concert this Friday!

Thanks again.  In the next few months, I'll be submitting another song. Your group does fantastic work.

Blessings,

Theresa Vogel, Arroyo Grande, CA

"Bill, From the moment we met at the studio to begin the project, all my concerns were put to ease.  Your notes and charts before hand made 3 similar sounding acoustic songs become unique, each in their own way.  All my

musician friends that I have been playing these songs with here in New York are impressed. I E-mailed the songs to them, check out their comments:

"Really nice man, I'm proud of you! Wonder Wheel is my favorite. Decent equipment and good musicians make a huge difference. Overall, two thumbs up from me dude!" (this is the guy who found the Nashville Trax blog and recommended that I record at your studio).

"Wow Kerry! The songs sound amazing! Good job man, they sound killer. Now that your ears have been sullied by the lofty heights of pro musicians it's time to get back down into the mud"- Ian

Thank you everyone worked on the Clarence Lowden project!" Kerry McFate , NY, New York

"Hello Bill, OH MY GOD!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!! I can't believe you could take my plain song and do this to it, your talent is incredible. It passed with flying colors with my co-writer. Another one will be on the way shortly."

"I’ve been working with Bill Watson at Nashville Trax Studio since he first opened. You will not find a person that will work harder for you or with more integrity then Bill. It’s a pleasure to record there and I’m continually amazed at the quality of work that Bill’s responsible for! For what it’s worth He and Nashville Trax Studio has my endorsement! ✌️❤️🥁"

Dear Bill, I just want to thank you so much for the wonderful experience in Nashville. You are amazing
at what you do there. It is way more than we could ever have imagined. All of the musicians were
fabulous. Jessica has never been happier. All of you made her comfortable from the minute she walked
into your studio. We are looking forward to coming back for more!!! Thanks again and God Bless,

 Karen McNear, Rochester, PA (studio client and aspiring artist Jessica McNear's mother)

Hello Bill, I've been contacted by a friend in Santa Cruz, CA who knows the female lead singer in a local Bay Area Jazz band. This woman wants to use "Easy Come, Easy Go" as part of their live performances! She says your production is "most excellent." Jerry Morse, Rogue River, Oregon

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The production is perfect on "Funny Thing". It blew me away. It has raised the bar on everything I plan to do. I love the mandolin, the fiddle, and I love love love the dobro.." The thing that struck me before I heard the final production, was that you treated the song as if you had invested in it. I now realize the difference choosing the right company- one that actually cares about my music- can make."

Janine Rivers
Hampton, Virginia

"Hi Bill. NICE. We are so happy with the fantastic music and mixes you have made! Now i send them to DDP Making, and print..Thank you!"…-Roy Sveinungsen, Himla-lyd Studios, Norway.(Nashville Trax provided all music tracks for an album with vocals recorded at Him-Layd in Norway.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I'm just blown away and amazed. The production quality is so high there's hardly anywhere to go. I'm curious if the CD was tracked live with the musicians playing together with the singer or not. It sounds like it, but I doubt it. That's probably a testament to the skill at work here. The bass sound is to die for, the drums sound spot on too; and that horn section, can you send them to Pittsburgh?" David Watson, Pittsburgh, PA

 "Long Stretch is everything I could have hoped for in a fiddle/steel, walking bass, country song. And my album, Cowboy Coterie?  After 22 years of writing and recording it's nice to FINALLY find a home at Nashville Trax and a music producer in Bill Watson who only accepts the best out of me." ." - Brian Bergquist, Manitoba, Canada.

"BMI management in Nashville loved both "Dreams" and "Every Time" - they said a major artist will record these songs. I have never had a presentation go that well in any market; to say I'm excited would be an understatement. Thanks so much for your great production work!"

Mike Parker
Little Rock, Arkansas (2008)


On Grammy Night, 2016, Mike posted this comment publicly along with the photo at left of himself and his wife Christy:

"We Lived our dreams as a Songwriter. Thanks to Bill Watson for everything ❤😇🙏🏻⏳"
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I sent Bill Watson a rough copy of a project I wanted to get recorded and mixed. What he and his musicians did and sent back to me exceeded my expectations. Then I showed up at the studio to add my vocals and acoustic guitar and in no time he had what he needed. The finished song is everything I wanted - they listened to me, they saw my dream, and they made it happen. I recommend Mr. Watson and Nashville Trax to anyone who wants quality that stands apart and look forward to finishing many projects with them".- Country Artist Troy Tomlinson

Bill, My client was very happy, the project turned out great. Excellent drum sounds. Man, don't ever change a thing in your drum room! 

Tom Wild, Hendersonville, TN

"Bill, Bill, Bill, Perfection!!! Your production, and the artists who contributed have brought tears to my eyes to hear my songs so well done. I can't thank you enough. I could go on and on, both my wife and I are very very impressed. When asked for a recommendation on a Nashville area recording studio, it's Nashville Trax spoken here! " Randy S., Yucaipa, CA
