Ken Phillips

Founder of TributeTunes

Ken Phillips is the founder of TributeTunes, a Scottsdale, Arizona company that writes and produces personalized songs. He and the TributeTunes team have created more than 15,000 custom songs: first dances and 50th anniversaries, birthday surprises, retirement send-offs, Mother's Day tributes and memorial songs for people who are deeply missed.

Ken built the TributeTunes process around one idea: the details a customer shares are what make a song unforgettable. Every song starts with the customer's own story. The lyrics come back for review before anything is recorded, and every order is produced in three studio quality versions with different vocal styles, so there is always a version that fits.

On the blog, Ken shares what thousands of songs have taught him: what to put in your story, which genres and tempos fit which occasions, how long things really take, and how to turn a few honest sentences into lyrics someone will play for years.
