A Song For You

Writing and Recording Personalized Songs for Patients and Families in Hospice and Hospitals.

Our Mission

We bring the healing power of music to those in need, whether in hospice, hospital, or home. Our musicians write and record personalized songs celebrating the stories of patients, caregivers, first responders, and others as a testament to their legacy. Sharing a patient's life in song brings comfort, gratitude (not grief), and a bit of joy to individuals, families, and communities in trying times.

Featured Artists

Since late 2020, musicians have been lending their own songs to this project.

Featured Performance: Brían Farrell

Brían Farrell, acclaimed Singer-Songwriter from Ireland, shares his original song 'Song for Susan'... sent from Leitrim, Ireland to NYC on behalf of 'A Song For You'.
