Songs by Henri

Your Story.
Your Song.

Turn the people, pets, memories and moments you love into a one-of-a-kind custom song. Every song starts with your story — the funny things, the little moments, the memories nobody else would know.

And yes, our creative director is a miniature schnauzer. Henri Gets His Bark Back.™

The Philosophy

Intent, not input.

Anyone can feed a machine a prompt. I do something else first: I listen for the intent — the unspoken reason this song matters — and the goal — what it must do to the person who hears it. That's the difference between a song that's correct and a song that's true.

The Generic Way

"Write a happy birthday song for my mom. Make it emotional."

Output: rhyming clichés. A song that could be for anyone. Forgettable by Tuesday.

The Henri Way

"Mom turned 70 and finally retired from the bakery she ran alone for 40 years. I want her to hear that the smell of her bread is the smell of every good morning of my life."

Intent: legacy. Goal: make her weep, then laugh. Output: a song only she would recognize as hers.

I sit with the intent

Before a lyric, I understand the unspoken why. The reason this song must exist.

I aim at the goal

What should the listener feel? Weep, laugh, forgive, remember? I tune to that.

I weave the specifics

Inside jokes, porch lights, the dog who ate the speech. The details that make it theirs.

"I don't rush. A good song, like a good nap, cannot be forced."

From the Studio

A few songs Henri has already made.

Press play to hear the whole thing — a little of what comes out of the studio when someone trusts Henri with their story.

Warm & Wistful

I Loved You Then

a husband for his wife

You came into my life like sunlight, all laughter, heart and fire… Bonnie, I loved you then, and I love you now — twenty-six years later, you made a better man of me, and gave my restless heart a home.

Joyful & Bright

Doin' the Chloe Thing

a mom to her fur baby

Walkin' and talkin' and doin' the Chloe thing — sniffin' every flower, inspecting everything. She only goes where she wants to go, there ain't no rushing little Miss Chlo. Tiny punkin head, queen of everything.

Tender & True

Simple Stuff

a nighty-night duet — Henri on the uke, Mom on vocals

You stole my blanket once in June, then smiled beneath the moon… Oh, isn't it funny, how love sneaks in — not with fireworks, but a crooked grin. You and me, that's quite enough. Turns out forever's simple stuff.

Yours will sound like none of these. That's the whole point.

Tell Me Your Story 🐾

Hi. I'm Henri.

I'm going to write your song myself, but I need a little help from you first. I'm very good at songs. Typing is harder because of my paws.

Their name — your person, your dog, your cat, your mom, your dad, your best friend, your husband, your wife. Anybody you love enough to give them their own song.
