Treating Musicians Fairly
HOW WE COMPENSATE OUR MUSICIANS
When buying a service online, it is always important to know if the service providers are being treated fairly and compensated for their efforts. When you purchase a Bring My Song To Life production for your special occasion, several people get involved with your project. It all starts with in-house administrative staff, who will process your order and payment. After that is done, it's off to the musicians. This page will explain who works on your song creatively and how each party is compensated. After all, we not only want you to receive a high quality service, we want you to know that you make a difference in musicians' lives and allow them to continue their art.
Who Works On Your Song
Lyricists
It all starts with the lyrics writer. After your order has been processed, we will match you with one of our lyrics writers who will create the words for your song.
Session Musicians
After the lyrics are approved, we move to the next step in the production cycle where a group of musicians will create the melody and record all instruments.
Session Singers
In the final step, the session singer will record the final vocals for your song, before handing everything over to our in-house audio engineering staff for mixing and mastering.

Why This Is Important
WE SUPPORT MUSIC CREATORS
It is important to note, for each of one of the packages, Bring My Song To Life pays out to the creatives (musicians, lyricists, singer) more than 75% of the price. The remainder goes towards administration, audio engineers, website upkeep, marketing efforts and other business expenses.
The pay for musicians, singers and lyrics writers rises with each package upgrade due to additional work being involved. For example, in the full band package, the singer would be required to sing lead and background vocals, while the singer would only provide lead vocals for the small band package.
Lastly, it came to our attention that our closest competitor in the field only pays out 50% of the money collected to their group of lyrics writers, musicians and singers. We think it is important to note this here so that you, as a potential client considering your options, know that by choosing Bring My Song To Life, you're choosing to treat the creative community fairly and respectfully.
