Your Story, My Song
Hi, I’m Tess Brown. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from a lifetime of singing and writing, it’s that music has the power to carry our stories further than words ever could. A good song can make you laugh, cry, or remember the little things you thought you’d forgotten.
And when that song is written just for you, it becomes something even more powerful — a keepsake of who you are and what you love.
That’s why I’m so passionate about creating personalized songs. When you invite me into your story, I don’t just hear names, dates, and milestones — I hear the rhythm of your life. Maybe it’s the way your granddad always tapped his boot on the porch step, or how your best friend lights up a room, or the sound of your dog’s paws racing across the kitchen floor when you come home. Those little details? They matter. They’re the heartbeat of a song that could only ever belong to you.
The Process: From Story to Song
When we sit down — whether it’s face-to-face, over the phone, or through a simple note you send me — I listen. I want to hear what makes this person, this moment, this memory so important to you. Don’t worry about being “poetic.” That’s my job. Just tell me the truth of it, and I’ll turn it into a melody.
From there, I head into my writing space. Maybe it’s with a notebook and a cup of coffee on my porch, or maybe it’s in the studio with my guitar in hand and my heart wide open. I take your story and let it guide me — the way the words want to fall, the way the chords want to resolve. I’ll wrestle with verses, hum through choruses, and keep at it until the song feels like it belongs to you.
I always say, my voice could make the telephone book sound like a ballad — but the real magic happens when I’m singing your story.
Why It Matters
Anyone can buy a gift. But not everyone can give a memory wrapped in melody. A custom song is something that lasts. It’s a gift you can play at a wedding, revisit on an anniversary, share at a retirement party, or even pass down to future generations. Imagine your loved one hearing their name, their quirks, their story set to music — knowing it was written just for them. That moment? It’s unforgettable.
And truth be told, these songs mean just as much to me as they do to you. I’ve written songs that made whole families laugh until they cried. I’ve written songs that honored heroes, celebrated pets, or captured love stories in three verses and a chorus. Every single one reminds me why I started singing in the first place: because music is meant to connect us.
What You Can Expect
When you work with me, you won’t just get a song. You’ll get a piece of my heart poured into your story. You’ll get honest lyrics, heartfelt melodies, and a performance that feels personal, because it is personal. I bring the same level of passion and care to your custom song as I do to the songs I release on stage and in the studio.
It doesn’t matter if you’re celebrating a birthday, a wedding, an anniversary, or simply want to say “thank you” in a way that words alone can’t. I’ll make sure the song reflects the spirit of the occasion, and most importantly, the spirit of the person it’s written for.
Let’s Write Your Song
Country music has always been about stories. The kind you pass down at the dinner table, the kind you sing out loud on the porch, the kind you keep tucked away in your heart. Your story deserves that kind of music — honest, real, and unforgettable.
So let’s write it together. You bring the memories. I’ll bring the melody. And together, we’ll create something that will last forever.
Because when the music fades, when the candles are blown out and the party’s over, you’ll still have a song that carries your story — and plays it back every time you press “play.”
With love,
Tess Brown
