Bespoke Song Commissions

 BESPOKE SONG COMMISSIONS

Everyone deserves their own song.

I am now offering clients the chance to commission a bespoke original song, written by me and my writing partner, Michael Roulston.

Michael and I have worked in the world of cabaret for over twenty years now, and have written countless songs together, including those on our two albums, 'Grin' and 'Life & I'. 

You can hear one of our private commissions, called 'Song for Helen', here: https://youtu.be/-6Aece-Rin4

Helen very kindly gave us the following testimonial:

‘I had the opportunity to let two musicians and entertainers I admire and have followed for several years write a song for me and it was beautiful. Not only was the discussion as to the song's topic hilarious (did I have a special pet fish in mind who wanted serenading?), the result more than blew my mind.


If you like Dusty Limits' and Michael Roulston's oeuvre you cannot go wrong. As the old saying goes: music can't save the world, but it can save your soul.
Your soul is safe with both of them.’

So, what's your song? A cheeky comedy ditty? A musical love-letter? A one-of-a-kind birthday surprise or wedding present? Is it a gift to yourself or a loved one? Perhaps you always wanted a song written about your favourite painter, or an inspiring theme, or perhaps or you just miss someone and want to let them know.

It can be highly personalised, or about any topic you choose, and every melody is unique. It's so much more than a singing telegram or a comedy gift-card; it's something that can be enjoyed for years to come.

Commissions start at £200 for a simple, short song (approx 1.5 mins) and rise according to how lavish a song you want and how you want it delivered. This can be:

  1. A recording with our vocals and piano accompaniment, which we'll send you as a high-quality mp3 file.

  2. A video version, sent as a private YouTube link, with a written message and the lyrics scrolling across the screen (like karaoke) so you can sing along.

  3. A video incorporating your photos, video clips and messages to create a celebratory montage. 

  4. A video of us performing the song live, dressed to the nines.

We can also supply sheet music for those who want to play their song themselves. 

To get the ball rolling, just drop me an email at dustylimits@gmail.com with the subject 'Song Commission' and I'll send you our current prices, based on your requirements. If you’re happy to proceed, I’ll send you a short questionnaire. We can then chat through the song over the phone.

I look forward to hearing from you.
