Why this works

Songwriting is where music becomes your story and these sessions are built for practical progress, not theory. You’ll be working in a well-equipped private studio setup (instruments, pro plugins and recording tools ready to go), so ideas can move fast from “rough concept” to something you can actually listen back to.

We’ll shape lyrics, melody and structure, build the music around it, and record rough vocals where it helps. You’ll leave with an audio file of our progress and clear next steps to keep momentum between sessions.

There’s something uniquely nourishing about writing a song, putting real feeling into words and music you can share.

What we can work on

  • Strengthening an existing idea (lyrics, melody, chords, meaning)

  • Starting a song from scratch (idea → chorus → structure)

  • Building the music/production around the song (instrumentals)

  • Hooks & toplines (including support for producers)

  • Recording rough vocals as we go (optional)

You’ll leave with

  • An audio copy of where we got to that you can listen back to

  • Clear next steps to keep building between sessions

Great for

  • Developing artists who want real progress

  • Parents buying a confidence-building gift

  • Adults who want a creative outlet with guidance

  • Producers who want help shaping hooks/melodies/lyrics

Songwriting Studio Sessions FAQs

  • No. These sessions work for complete beginners through to experienced writers. If you’re new, I’ll guide the process step-by-step. If you already write, I can adapt my approach to suit your preferences and strengths.

  • Yes - it’s a great gift. You can purchase now and sessions can be arranged at a later date at a time that suits them.

  • Sessions are in Sowerby Bridge (HX6 postcode). Exact address and arrival details are sent after booking.

  • If you have any of these, bring them:

    • voice notes, lyrics, chords, or a rough demo

    • reference songs (even just 1–3 tracks you love the vibe of)

    If you have nothing prepared, no problem — we can start from scratch.

  • You’ll leave with:

    an audio export (“demo-in-progress”) of what we created in the session

    • clear next steps so you can keep momentum between sessions

    (If you book a bundle, we build on the same song(s) across sessions unless you ask otherwise.)

  • Totally fine — life happens.

    • Please give at least 48 hours’ notice to reschedule.

    • Less than 48 hours’ notice may be treated as a used session (or a 50% rebooking fee) depending on circumstances.

    • If you’re unwell, just tell me — we’ll be sensible about it.

  • If you’re not sure, start with a 2-hour session — it’s the best balance for real progress and leaving at a point you can really hear your song coming to life.
