fine-tuned custom songs

"From his home in Nashville, Fine is able to record short, custom jingles for any occasion, from birthdays to engagements to holidays. Over the last year and a half, he’s recorded more than 600 jingles for people all around the world.

'I feel like I’m getting to know complete strangers so quickly because they’re giving me the most intimate details of their life and their relationships, so I get to feel like I’m part of something bigger,' Fine said."

- Clancy Burke, Local 12-WKRC

Fine-Tuned Custom Songs was founded by Ryan Fine in 2020 as a way to make ends meet during the COVID-19 pandemic after losing all of his performance work. Since writing hundreds of custom songs, Ryan realized the value of his work was far more than a way to make money. He made note of how touched and impressed his customers were by his unique ability to express virtually anything in song. A Fine-Tuned Custom Song is the perfect gift for that hard-to-shop-for person or as a warm gesture to someone who needs to be cheered up. It is as simple as filling out the form and having Ryan Fine-Tune it!

"Fine, a Mariemont native and graduate of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, moved to Nashville three years ago to pursue a career as a singer-songwriter. Now that he can’t play gigs for the time being, Fine devised a new way to get paid for writing a song. Custom songs written specifically for customers.

...

 “It’s going great,” he said. “Dollar-amount-wise, I’m projected to make more at this point with custom songs than I was projected to lose from gigs being canceled. So I’m better off doing this than what I was going to do before, which is amazing.” Another bonus of staying at home and writing rather than going to play a club: “It’s a lot less carrying,” he added."
