Have you ever wanted to tell your mom how much you love her or your boss how much you hate him, but words just aren't enough?
Do you need to serenade that special someone, but can't carry a tune?
Or maybe you are just looking for a truly unique gift for someone?
Well, I'm here to help by writing you your own personalized song!
How it works:
Step 1: You book a virtual meeting with me. I then send you a questionnaire so that you can really think about how you want to do your song.
Step 2: Via the magic of the internet, we meet up and discuss what you are looking for.
This is where we decide what genre of music you want the song to be and what other familiar songs you might want to “borrow” ideas from.
We decide if you are looking for it to be a serious song or more along the lines of a Weird Al parody song.
We also decide whether it will be a simple format of just one guitar and singing or if you want to go with more of a full band production.
Lastly, we discuss the details that would make this song uniquely yours.
Step 3: This is where I write the first draft of the song and record what is called a scratch track in order to give you an idea of what I came up with so you can decide if there are any changes you want to be made.
Step 4: I record a final version of the song, register it with BMI (where you also get partial songwriting credit, so that, in the off chance that Beyoncé or Taylor Swift decide to record a version of it, we can become millionaires together), and then you get your final copy that you are free to use in any non-profit setting that you'd like.
I still retain all licensing and performance rights to the song, but you'll share in any songwriter royalties, if any, that the song generates.
