Nelson Braxton - Orchestrator
I help modern producers turn great songs into emotional experiences by recording real orchestras quickly and affordably — no film budget required.
My orchestral work spans artists as diverse as Sheila E., Michael Bolton, and American Idol winner Trent Harmon — blending cinematic depth into everything from pop and R&B to contemporary instrumental music.
As a producer and multi-instrumentalist, I’ve also performed or collaborated with world-renowned artists including Babyface, John Mayer, Ledisi, and David Foster, giving me a unique understanding of how orchestral color and modern production can coexist seamlessly.
Beyond arranging, I’ve produced and mixed multiple Billboard #1 singles under my own group, The Braxton Brothers — experience that informs how I approach every project with both musicality and technical precision.
