Tom’s Custom Songs

How many people do you know with their own song? You can be the first on your block.

Tom has written hundred of songs (and has recorded four CD’s); you can find his songs on youtube (just search his name). On this page you can also hear several of the custom songs he’s written, along with testimonials.

A lot goes into a song: the lyrics tell the story, and the music sets the tone. Finding just the right combination of the two is what Tom is good at.

Tom has written songs to commemorate life-events, such as birthdays, graduations, and retirements. He’s written love songs: both serious and heavy, as well as light and playful. And he’s written songs to simply honor and celebrate a special person. Tom will find the right combination of the elements that make a great song to fit you’re unique experience.

This is a collaborative process. Email/text/call Tom and tell him what you have in mind. He’ll have lots of questions for you. Not just the what, where and when, but the stories and anecdotes that give him the background he needs to create a gem that will last a lifetime (and then some).

Sometimes it’s difficult to put your thoughts and feelings into a nice neat package. But Tom is good at hearing what’s behind your words, and crafting them into a memorable song–which might evoke tears or laughter (or sometimes both).

For $500 you can have a professional recording with Tom on vocal accompanied by his guitar. For a little extra, you could have a female vocalist or different arrangement–even a full band. Every song is customized. Tom is committed to making this a richly satisfying experience for all involved.

I write this thru my tears. George is crying too. Never thought we’d pay someone to make us cry. You have captured the essence of their relationship. I know they will love it too. – Janet Dunstan

“I told Tom what I wanted and suggested a few phrases that had popped into my head. In a few days, he had worked his magic and created exactly what I wanted. He was easy to work with and wanted to be sure what he came up with met my needs.” – Bob Branstrom

How cool is it to have your own song that will become part of the soundtrack of your life, or your relationship, or your marriage?  I can’t think of a more perfect gift for my daughter at her graduation.  Tom’s song captured her spirit in so many ways- it’s uncanny.  I’m so glad her cousin video taped her listening to the song for the first time.  Truly priceless. – Julie Coffin

Tom is quite a word spinner. My husband turned 65 years old and it was important for me to get something very special for him. Tom took all the information I gave him and wrote a song that was beyond my expectations and to see Bill’s expressions while Tom sang were priceless. A personalized song is the best gift given and received.
Thank you so much, Tom. ----Clarita Nolan

 

Dearest Tom, I love my song!!!  It touches me so deeply.  I believe it is the most wonderful gift I have ever been given.  You captured what is important to me – what I want to be.  I suspect that any time I get discouraged, listening to this song will bring me back to a place of joy. I’m so impressed with your skill and with your heart and the depth of your understanding.  How can I ever say an adequate thank you for what you have given me? ----Jewel Payne
