Hello Taxi friends,

I'm looking for very talented and experienced lyricists who currently write lyrics at a professional level.

I am an experienced composer and songwriter (clients include Disney, ABC, etc.). Genres I currently write in are pop, adult contemporary, musical theatre, original songs for film/TV/ads, original holiday songs (Christmas songs, etc.), film scores, and orchestral music. I get many forwards from Taxi, and in one month alone three different music libraries wanted to pick up my songs and to hear my entire catalogue to acquire more. You can hear samples of my work below.

I’m looking for lyricists who are experienced and knowledgable about their craft (i.e. have an understanding of prosody, various types of rhymes, rhyme schemes, etc.). That said, I'm also open to lyricists who may be less experienced, but are extremely talented at writing lyrics and have lyrics to demonstrate it.

This is very important: being able to write lyrics adeptly to an existing melody (without changing the melody) is ESSENTIAL for this collaboration. If this is not something that you can presently do, this is not the right collaboration for you.

It would be best that the lyricist has experience writing in at least some of these genres mentioned above.

If interested, and if you strongly believe that you fit the bill of the above, please send me a message and send work samples in your first message. Preferably a link to BOTH your lyric(s) written out as well as a link to a recording of the song(s).

If this ad has been posted for a long time, please still feel free to reach out.

Many thanks, and I wish you all the very best in pursuing your art.

Kind regards,

Robert

Hi Robert,

I'd also like to toss my hat in the ring for collaboration, so will send you an email with links to my lyrics and songs:)

I have written songs in dark Indie pop, Americana, country, and folk and written to existing melody in three of those songs. Awards include winning the History lyric division of the International Narrative Song Contest for "Ballad of Crazy Horse" and TAXI Folk Song of the Month for "Fool for Love".

(On the instrumental side, I have horror music placed in 4 episodes of a ghost-hunting show on Amazon Prime.)

Thank you for your consideration!

Hi Taxi folks,

I'm always looking for excellent lyricists who are able to write lyrics to melodies (i.e., where the music is written first and the lyrics second).

Please feel free to reach out. Including samples of your lyrics in your first message would be great.

Best,

Robert
