Composition

Original melodies and song structures shaped around your voice, your story, and the record you hear in your head.

Songs built with you, not for you

Composition sessions start with conversation: what you're trying to say, what you can't stop listening to, where your voice sits most honestly. Then we write — chords, melody, structure — in real time, with instruments in hand.

You leave every session with a work tape and a lyric sheet, and full ownership of everything we create together.

What's included

  • Melody and chord writing tailored to your vocal range
  • Full song structure — verse, chorus, bridge, arrangement map
  • Lyric development and topline refinement
  • Demo work tapes from every session, mixed same-day

How it runs

01

Listen

A 45-minute conversation about your songs, references, and goals.

02

Write

Two-hour writing sessions with piano, guitar, and beats on tap.

03

Refine

We trim, rewrite, and lock the structure until it sings itself.

Common questions

Do I keep the rights to what we write? +

Yes. You own your songs outright; we work for a session fee and take no publishing unless we specifically agree otherwise in writing.

What if I only have a voice memo? +

Perfect. Most songs start as memos. Bring the hum, the hook, or half a verse and we'll build outward from there.

How many sessions does a song take? +

Most songs land in two to three sessions. We quote per song, not per hour, so there's no clock-watching while you create.
