About Custom Songwriting
Why I Write Custom Songs
I’m usually the quiet one, not the best with words face-to-face, but music is where I really say what I mean. Every custom song I make is built around your story, memory, or moment - something you’ll want to play again and again.
How It Works
- We start with a chat - you share the details, the vibe, and even those inside jokes. I need all the small things that matter to you.
- I’ll write your lyrics, come up with the melody, and send you a first draft. Sometimes it’s raw, sometimes it’s nearly there. We’ll tweak it together.
- When you’re happy, I record everything in my little bedroom studio. Guitar, ukulele, vocals - all the mixing and production is handled by me.
- You get a polished audio track that’s 100% yours.
Styles I Do
Mostly I’m into indie, acoustic, and singer-songwriter stuff. But I can switch it up - from a mellow acoustic ballad creation to a classic pop vibe or even indie songwriter for hire style. If you’re after something soulful or want a stripped-back rock song, I’m game.
Some Ideas
People come to me for all sorts - personalized anniversary song, custom wedding ceremony music, special birthday gifts, or even something for your podcast or short film. Whatever you’ve got in mind, Aajao (come on), let’s make it happen.

My Story
Hey, I’m Ryan, a singer-songwriter from Mumbai. Used to be stuck at a desk, then one day I just quit and went full music mode. Not gonna lie, I’m awkward as hell at parties - the guy in the corner hoping someone says hi. Wrote my first single about that exact feeling. But on stage, especially at small gigs, I feel alive. When I’m not strumming, you’ll catch me lost in YouTube or clicking pics. I shoot musicians and do my own DIY shoots too. It’s messy, but I love it.
My Work
Singer-songwriter & Live Musician - I play solo acoustic sets, covers, and originals at intimate house gigs, open mics, cafes, and events.
Guitarist & Ukulele Player - I jam on acoustic, electric, and ukulele. Mostly solo, sometimes duo as 'Rheryt' with my friend Rhea.
Songwriting & Poetry - I write personal songs, and can turn your story into custom song creation. Let’s try capturing your vibe.
