We are a writing company, so our core work is the words: lyrics, song structure, rhyme and meter, and guidance on melody and phrasing. We can write to your existing music or suggest a melodic shape for you or your collaborator to develop.
Recorded demos, instrumental tracks, vocal performance and production are separate skills. We include them only if your written quote says so, and we will tell you plainly, in writing, what is and is not covered before you commit. Many clients take our lyrics to their own producer, band or studio. Others hand us a finished melody and ask for words that fit.
A good lyric does a few things at once. It has one clear idea, images the listener can picture, a chorus that says the main thing in the simplest way and verses that add something new each time. We write toward that, and we read every line aloud, because a lyric that looks good on paper can be hard to sing.
