LUCAS FOURNIER
Music Producer for Indie Folk/Pop Artists
Do you have endless voice memos sitting around on your phone that you promised yourself, your friends, and your family you’d release last year?
Maybe you finally got around to producing them and you realized it’s much harder than you originally thought.
Or maybe you’ve released music but it hasn’t connected with your audience or gotten the attention it deserves.
I’ve spent the last 5 years going through all these stages myself.
By producing and releasing three albums of my own music, I’ve honed my craft, garnering support from the most renowned platforms in the indie music scene, including AlexRainbirdMusic and Indie Folk Central. My music has over a million views on youtube through these outlets, and over 50,000 streams on Spotify.
Although I loved releasing my own music, at the start of 2023 I discovered my true passion, which is helping other talented artists achieve their dreams.
I do this by offering start-to-finish remote music production services that take the stress off the artist. Through a careful, personal, collaborative process, I will turn your demo into a polished track ready for distribution so you can focus on writing, promoting, and performing your music.
WHAT I OFFER
Production
I will take your demo, whether it’s a voice memo or a fully-produced song that isn’t quite clicking yet, and help you turn it into a polished master ready for Spotify.
The process varies, but we’ll begin by talking about the direction you want the song to go in. I’ll use live and MIDI instruments, along with your vocals (recorded either at home or in a studio) to create a production that compliments and highlights your voice and songwriting.
I offer unlimited revisions at no extra cost to guarantee you’re satisfied with the final result.
Arrangement
Sometimes you have a fully-produced song but you feel like it’s missing something. This is especially common if you produce mainly with virtual instruments, which can often make a track fall a bit flat.
I help artists bring their songs to life through emotional vocal and string arrangements. I am both a vocalist and violinist, and I record dozens of layers to sound like a real choir or string ensemble. With a classical background in music theory, composition, and counterpoint, my unique approach to harmony and arrangement will give your song the authentic touch it deserves.
Co-Writing
Although I usually help artists produce songs that they have already written, I also collaborate on the songwriting process with some artists. This can be through writing sessions where we workshop lyrics, chords, structure, and arrangement, or I can send instrumentals for the artist to write over.
Collaborative work can be so vital to getting over writer’s block and improving your craft, and with 5+ years of songwriting experience I’m confident I can help you take your song to the next level.
“There isn't enough space to truly review how incredible Lucas is. As a multi-instrumentalist, he's an incredible asset to get your simple iPhone raw demo of an idea to a masterpiece. I spent the last two years looking to find a producer/arranger who could take my folk songs and arrange them with ambience and bring them to life. Lucas has an arsenal of instruments - but he even plays live strings and they're incredible. Writing songs for me is easy - recording them myself at a professional level was draining and uninspiring. Lucas was the missing link to bringing my songs to life in a direction I never even anticipated.”
Ryan Cohen
“The constant theme in his work is his ability to get at the heart of an idea, and push it past his old limits to find something exciting and new. Every time I work with him there is some fresh surprise that inspires me to do better in my own work. I can't think of what more you could want from a producer.”
Harley Eblen
“I had the pleasure of working with Lucas on Sarah-Michelle Petit’s Storylines EP and I can’t say enough things about the experience (go listen to it and you’ll understand why). Lucas is a fantastic producer with a great sensibility for the artists vision and what the song needs.”
