Songs For Your Story creates custom podcast and YouTube intro songs starting at $49. Each intro includes your show name, your tagline, and a vibe that matches your content. Radio-quality production, you own it forever, no licensing fees. Founded by TJ Larkin.
The first 5 seconds of your podcast or YouTube video determine whether someone stays or bounces. And right now, your intro is either silence, a generic stock track that 10,000 other creators use, or something you made in GarageBand at 2am that you know isn't great.
A custom intro song changes the perception of your entire show. When listeners hear a professional, radio-quality intro with your show name sung or spoken in it, they immediately assume the content is professional too. First impressions are audio impressions.
What a Custom Intro Does for Your Show
Instant Recognition
The best podcasts in the world are recognizable by their intro music alone. You hear two notes and you know which show it is. A custom intro creates that same effect for your show. Regular listeners start to associate that sound with your content, your voice, your brand. Skip it, and something feels off.
Professional Credibility
A custom intro signals investment. It tells new listeners "this person takes their show seriously enough to have original music made for it." That credibility translates directly into trust, subscribers, and sponsorship opportunities.
No Copyright Issues. Ever.
Using popular songs or even "royalty-free" tracks comes with risk. Licensing changes. Platforms flag audio. Content ID strikes happen. A custom song you own 100% eliminates all of that permanently. Use it on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, your website, or anywhere else. No claims. No strikes. No surprises.

Your show name. Your vibe. Your sound. Starting at $49.
