Songs, Stories, Things that Stay with You.
Some gifts sit on a shelf. This one lives in a person.
You tell Korby about someone you love - how you met, the thing they always say, the ordinary Tuesday that turned out to matter. He takes those details and writes a real song. Not a jingle, not a novelty - a song you'd want to hear even if it weren't about your person. Then he records it, just voice and guitar or piano, and sends you the audio and a video performance to share however you like.
You play it at the birthday dinner, the anniversary, the graduation, Christmas morning. The room goes quiet. Someone reaches for a tissue. You'll know.
Korby Lenker has spent twenty years in Nashville writing songs, making records, and collaborating with Grammy winners like Molly Tuttle and Bill Miller. His Morse Code Podcast, now over 100 episodes, is a who's who of the most relevant singer-songwriters in the game, from James McMurtry to Hayes Carll to Donovan Woods.
How it works: You and Korby start with a short, no-obligation call - about 15 minutes - where you tell him about who you have in mind. If it feels right, you're in, and from there he goes deeper on the details that make a song feel like it could only be about one person on earth. Then, over a week or two in his Nashville studio, he writes something that could only be for them. You hear it first, privately, with a round of revisions included, before anyone else does. Then the moment: you receive the final recording and video, and how you share it is up to you.
Book a quick, no-obligation conversation about the person you'd like to honor with a custom song. I'll ask a few questions about the occasion, the relationship, and what you're envisioning. By the end, you'll know whether this is the right fit — and if it is, I'll walk you through next steps.
