SONGWRITING SESSIONS
Got a great song idea, but not sure how to finish it? Or do you have inspired lyrics and a great melody, but can't play guitar and need chords to realize the full potiental of your song?
Then book a songwriting session with me! I have over 15 years in songwriting experience and have written hundreds and hundreds from start to finish in all types of genres.
Review the songwriting sessions options to see what the best fit is for you below:
Full Writing Session
You bring the idea. We’ll turn it into a song.
In this collaborative songwriting session, we’ll take whatever idea you have and build it into something real. Together, we’ll develop the melody, lyrics, chords, structure, and overall direction of your song while I guide you through the creative process.
Come with anything that inspires you:
- A melody or vocal idea
- A lyric, phrase, or concept
- A guitar, piano, or instrumental riff
- A chord progression
- A feeling, story, or idea you want to express
- Or even just a rough voice memo
You don't need to consider yourself a songwriter. You just need an idea you're excited about.
By the end of the session, you'll have the foundation of an original song, and a better understanding of how to turn your ideas into music.
What to expect
We'll collaborate in a relaxed, creative environment to develop your idea into a complete song concept. Depending on where we take it, we may work on lyrics, melody, chords, song structure, arrangement, and production ideas.
Rate: $350/per three hour session
Pre-Production Writing Session
Bring the beginning. We’ll get it ready to record.
In this collaborative pre-production session, we’ll take your unfinished song and develop it into a polished song ready for production. Together, we’ll refine the melody, lyrics, chords, structure, arrangement, and overall direction so we can walk into the recording process knowing exactly what the song needs.
Come with what you have:
- A rough demo or voice memo
- An unfinished song or idea
- Lyrics or a melody that needs work
You don't need a finished song. You just need something worth building on.
By the end of the session, you'll have a finished song with the creative decisions and direction needed to confidently enter the production phase.
What to expect
We'll work together to identify what's working, finish what's missing, and make intentional decisions about the song before recording begins. Depending on what the song needs, we may refine lyrics and melody, finalize the structure, develop the arrangement, establish instrumentation, and discuss production direction.
Rate: $200 as an add-on to full production

Full Song Mixing Service: I provide a professional mix of your song that brings clarity, depth, and energy to your music. I take your raw recordings and shape them into polished, balanced, ready-to-master tune that sounds powerful across all listening platforms.
