Tone Tree Audio, LLC worked with a talented songwriting duo in 2018 and recorded, mixed and mastered 3 modern country singles with harmony vocals, guitars, bass and drums.
Phalen Sanford of Benkelman, Nebraska and Ginger ten Bensel of Hastings, Nebraska co-wrote and performed three songs at Summit Church Studio in Kearney with Tone Tree Audio in 2018. Sanford, who is a young, up and coming talent, sang with a vocal quality and confidence beyond his years. He is also an accomplished guitarist, and he laid down his own rhythm guitar parts on the songs.
Providing harmonies and music industry expertise, ten Bensel brought her powerful voice and vast experience with country music to help craft the songs into catchy, radio-ready arrangements.
Tone Tree Audio utilized the guitar skills of Joshua Wayne Lange of Kearney, Nebraska to provide tasty lead parts on the songs. Bass and drums were performed and produced by Kent Lutt of Tone Tree Audio.
Phalen and his mother Davina Sanford said this about the recording process: “[Tone Tree Audio] is exceptional in the recording studio. Kent was accommodating to our difficult schedules. During the recording he offered great suggestions and has an ear for fine tuning the imperfections. He has done an amazing job finalizing the songs.
We had several in our group and we were all giving him ideas of what we thought would make [the songs] better. Kent was able to listen to us all and please everyone. We would absolutely recommend Tone Tree Audio to anyone, whether you are just starting to record or have experience in a studio. [Tone Tree Audio] produces a great experience with remarkable results.”
