AVA KING MUSIC
Production and Songwriting
I love producing, songwriting and supporting artists in expressing their true selves through their music.
I've produced for artists on Capitol Records and SM entertainment and for Nichole Scherzinger (from the Pussycat Dolls). Music I've produced has reached top 10 on the iTunes sales charts. Songs I've worked on have been featured in countless TV shows and films including Empire, Keeping up with Kardashians, Crazy Rich Asians and the Ellen Degeneres show.
Having taken almost every class at the Berklee School of music online (from classical orchestration to jazz reharmonization, engineering and mastering), I have both the artistic and technical skills to help your vision come through in all its beauty!
Scroll below for examples of my previous work, the services/pricing I offer and some of my credits.
