Welcome

     BITTERSON MUSIC is an audio recording and production operation founded in 2007 and operated by me, Phillip Amerson.  As a musician and producer, I am able to offer a unique perspective to the recording and production process.  My experiences as a musician and performer help to shape each project I undertake:  I enjoy making dynamic songs out of bare demos.  I commonly play guitar, bass, and keyboards on songs when asked.  I am able to write melody lines for instruments and vocals.  I like arranging and writing new songs with clients, harmonizing vocals and instruments, and layering tracks to create great soundscapes.  I also have a working partnership with Rax Trax Studios and can schedule time and services at this studio as part of your production package.

Since joining the US Army Reserve in 2010 I've maintained a focused client list and project-based focus. The home-based recording studio has transitioned many times around the world, but the relationships with the below artists and Rax Trax Studios in Chicago remain strong and current.  Along with recording and production, I have consistently worked as a musician and live recordist/audio engineer with local contemporary worship bands everywhere I've lived since 2010:

• Chicago, IL (Revival Tabernacle)
• Kandahar, Afghanistan (KAF Church Band)  
• Charleston, SC (Seacoast West, Coastal Community Church) 
• Enterprise, AL (Ft. Rucker Wings Chapel) 
• Hopewell, VA (Destination Church) 
• Grafenwoehr, Germany (Chapel Netz)
• Des Moines, IA (North Point Church)
