For years, I’ve been writing songs—melodies that float in on the wind, tunes that arrive unannounced while I’m working in the garden or walking in the woods. Writing music has always come naturally to me. But for a long time, the hardest part was pairing that music with words—either mine or someone else’s.
That’s changed.
Over time, I’ve developed a process that allows me to take your lyrics—whether they’re polished poems or scribbled phrases—and turn them into fully realized songs. If you’re a lyricist, poet, or storyteller with words you want to bring to life musically, I can help make that happen.
Here's What I Offer:
- Custom Song Composition – You provide the lyrics (or even just a theme), and I’ll craft a melody that matches the tone, rhythm, and emotion of your words.
- Arrangement and Instrumentation – I’ll help build the full musical setting: guitar, mandolin, violin, and more—whatever fits your vision.
- Demos and Recordings – Need a rough demo or a more polished recording? I can provide either, depending on what you need.
Why Work With Me?
I’ve spent a lifetime immersed in music—from teaching and performing to composing and recording. What I bring is a deep understanding of how melody and meaning work together to create something truly memorable. My approach is personal, organic, and tailored to your words.
Whether you’re an aspiring songwriter or a seasoned artist looking for a collaborator, I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
Let’s make something beautiful together.
