James Leahy - Yamaha Corp. Of America
I was the Production Manager for Musical Content for the Software Dept. at Yamaha Corp. of America for 25 years. Initially, we hired Joel as an editor, but soon realized his talents/skill sets went far beyond this singular job. Besides becoming the head editor and in charge of Quality Control, Joel became one of our top content providers, arrangers and performers. Some of the name performer projects Joel produced or edited include Elton John, Michael McDonald, Ray Charles and Peter Nero.
For 25 yrs., Joel’s enthusiasm and dedication to our projects was second to none!
Cathy Macbride - Yamaha Corp Of America
Joel worked in the Content Development Department as an artist, Engineer and Editor. He worked on many special projects including the Elton John Red Piano Show in Las Vegas. He is extremely musical and precise.
Pete Deneff - Independent producer
Joel is an amazing producer, composer, and arranger. I have known him for 25 years and his standard of excellence is second to none! Joel's sound and productions are always top notch and his command of the artistic and technical aspects of the production process is extraordinary. He has a natural musicianship that is a rarity nowadays. He is also highly advanced in the area of electronic music and MIDI editing. I have personally worked with Joel on many projects and he has been a great mentor and colleague, especially in our work with Yamaha Corporation.
Laureen Smith - Songwriter
Joel’s productions are meticulous and multifaceted. His attention to detail and open communication allow for artists and songwriters alike to be pleased with the results. He has a wealth of experience in a variety of genres and is a multi instrumentalist. Joel’s vast knowledge and innate musicality result in professional and yet authentic songs that audiences can connect with each and every time. His personality is welcoming and respectful allowing for everyone from the most seasoned professional to the brand new amateur musicians to feel most comfortable. And he is a wonderful human.
Dominik Hauser - Co-owner Geek Music
I've hired Joel on several projects over the last few years and I can't think of anybody that's more professional than him. He's production work is some of the best I've ever come across and his talent shines through in every style that's needed. If you're looking for somebody with a huge talent in songwriting, producing or just plain piano performance, you've found him.I highly recommend that you give him a try
Jamie Hammond - Co-owner Geek Music
I was introduced to Joel a couple of years ago when a colleague suggested we check out this ‘guy from Nashville’ who’s some kind of musical ‘wunderkind’. We had been producing for a few years but wanted to step up our production and my god was bringing Joel in one of the best decisions we made. Joel is a musical genius, his attention to detail, music construction, knowledge, playing ability as well as being able to turn his hand to any genre is incredible. Not only that but he has this annoying habit of being super nice and a pleasure to work with. Look no further for your producer!
Phillip Keveren - Renowned arranger
Joel is a music business veteran, highly experienced in many facets of the industry. It has been my privilege to work with Joel over the years, and I deeply respect him.
Ethan Lee - Yamaha Corp Of America
I'll always hold tremendous respect and admiration for Joel's work and ethic. He has shown a consistent reliability to complete work on or ahead of schedule and produce thorough and entertaining arrangements with this gifted musical ear and technical expertise. Whenever I need complex, layered melody work for any project, I know Joel's the guy!
Dave Polich - Producer
I've worked with Joel Plimmer for over 40 years, both in studios and in bands. He's got more talent than I do and that's saying a lot. A master multi-instrumentalist, film composer, great songwriter, producer, and excellent sound designer. And super nice guy! You're in good hands with him.

Jason Nyberg - Yamaha Corp Of America
I've enjoyed working with Joel for more than 20 years. He is an excellent musician, very versatile, and easy to work with. I look forward to the creativity that he always brings to every project, and I appreciate his technical musical knowledge as well!
TIm Riehm - Vocalist
Joel is an awesome producer! Extremely competent with theory and a particularly good keys player. He’s always made the songs we’ve worked on sound big and interesting, and on top of that, he’s just easy to work with. Truly can’t go wrong with Joel!
Marty Dodson - Songwriter with multi #1's and Owner of Songtown
Joel does amazing work! I'm always impressed with his creativity and musicality. He's one of my "go-to" producers!
Michael Farrow - Mix Engineer, Pirates of the Caribbean, Finding Nemo
Having worked with many great composers, arrangers, performers and producers, I can say -- for sure -- Joel is a five start talent in every area. His songs are so well produced they almost mix themselves (don't tell him I said that). When changes are needed he gives me clear comments in a very supportive way and I'm delighted to make the improvements he asks for. If I had a project of my own, I would definitely ask Joel for his help.
