I will write a bespoke lyric for your existing track, or from just an idea you provide. I can translate your lyrics to English if it's not your first language. I can provide detailed song critiques for both lyrics and music production.
Powerful lyrics, with emotion. I will write a bespoke lyric for your existing track. My experience includes being personally mentored by Ray Davies (The Kinks), and a year at the Platinum Songwriting Academy in London. I've learnt to work fast and to a high standard as a given. I love to work with strong images and honest emotions, expressing them in new ways.
I will write a bespoke lyric for your song, matching your melody or track as required.
If English is not your natural language, I can help with translations for your songs.
I also offer song reviews of either just lyrics, or lyrics & production. This is a comprehensive written review and I will offer suggestions of what to do to improve the song and/or production.
If you need something else, just let me know how I can help your song move forward.
