Welcome to Klipp Records!

Hi! My name is John Klipp, and I'm the head and founder of Klipp Records in Nashville, Tennessee. Ever since I can remember, my heart has been swayed by music. Music has always been there for me and moved me beyond words. My love for music grew when I discovered a new passion: music production. Ever since thirteen, I've been producing other artists' music as well as my own. Producing gives me an inexpressible joy. There's nothing quite like starting with one instrument, and then layering until you have a beautifully intricate song. After a hard day's (or night's) work, I believe there's no better feeling than lying in bed and smiling because you enjoyed your work that day. 

I'm here to help you wherever you are in the production process, whether that's starting a song from scratch or adding a guitar part to enhance your music.

Thank you for considering me to produce your music. Feel free to check out my Credits page to hear my work and/or read one of my artist's kind comments, and my Gear page for info on my musical equipment. See more info on the backstory of Klipp Records below the contact form.

Please contact me with any questions/music proposals at klipprecords@gmail.com or by filling out the contact form below. Many thanks! - John

Established in 2015.

Klipp Records began when I released my first Single, "This Girl," on January 1st, 2015. It was a defining moment for me. "You don't have to write the best song ever," my crush's mom told me at a Christmas party. "You only have to write a song." This statement sparked my independent songwriting and production career. Fun fact: My first Single was written about the daughter of the person who said, "You only have to write a song."

When life gets me down, music always gets me right back up. A little of my music background: I took piano lessons when I was about eight, then went on to learning drums around nine or ten, then the guitar hit me at eleven. From The All American Rejects to Mozart to The Beatles to Drake to John Mayer, I've been inspired by all kinds of artists/genres. At seventeen ("I learned the truth"), I attended Berklee College of Music's one week summer program and studied Jazz guitar. It was through this experience that I realized I didn't want to go to music school. Instead, I attended Virginia Commonwealth University and graduated in May 2019 with a Marketing degree with a concentration in Product and Brand Management. I moved to Nashville in August 2019 to pursue music because music is my passion. I'd absolutely love to bring my passion to your art. Contact me today at klipprecords@gmail.com. I look forward to working with you!
