About

One musician, many languages

I'm Henry Fernandez, a guitarist and keyboard player based in Finland. I play electric guitar from classic rock to modern and progressive metal; acoustic styles from classical arpeggios and Latin American folklore to blues, country and bossa nova; plus piano and synths.

Sointu Sur is a nonprofit hobby project: I contribute to music that matters to people. If your band, choir, theatre or charity event needs a part played well, let's talk.

  • Harmony, modes and chord colour
  • Odd meters, metric shifts and polyrhythm
  • Melody and soloing that carry emotion
  • Recording and live performance experience

What I can bring to your project

I

Session tracks

Your demo part re-recorded in professional quality, or new parts written for your song — guitars (6- and 8-string, nylon and steel), piano, keys and synths. Delivered as clean, edited stems.

II

Live support

Guitar or keys for a one-off show after rehearsals, or a short tour. I bring my own in-ear monitoring, wireless system and digital mixer.

III

Arrangement ideas

Help with chord progressions, reharmonisation, rhythmic feel and parts that support the song and its emotion.

How it works

Simple and clear from the start

Send your demo

A rough recording, chart or voice memo, and a few words about the feel you want.

Agree the basics

Scope, schedule, credits and song shares, written on one page so everyone is clear.

Record & deliver

Tracks recorded and edited in my studio, delivered as WAV stems (24-bit / 48 kHz, or to match your session).

Fine-tune

A round of revisions so the part sits right in your mix.

Nonprofit by design. Sointu Sur supports community, charity and independent projects on a hobby basis. Travel and material costs can be agreed case by case.
