Songwriter

Makena Metz on SoundBetter

I am a songwriter for animation, sync music, and musical theatre! I've written songs for Disney's "Hamster & Gretel," through 5Alarm Music for MTV/Paramount, and my debut EP is releasing this year.

I'm a musical wildcard who can write in many genres and styles, including pop, rock, jazz, contemporary and classical musical theatre, funk, R&B, gospel, and more! I'm a proud member of ASCAP, Maestra Music, the Alliance for Women Film Composers, the Songwriters of North America, and the Society of Composers & Lyricists. I teach songwriting professionally at The Prep LA.

This year I was selected for the SCL’s LA mentorship program and last year I participated in the Johnny Mercer Foundation Songwriting Intensive and the Paramount/MTV Entertainment Group First Time Composers Program.

My songs have been featured on the Emmy winning Disney+ show Hamster & Gretel and are upcoming in Disney Jr.'s Mickey Mouse Funhouse.

I am an alum of Sam Carner’s Musical Creators Institute Program and New Musical Inc’s CORE Curriculum for Musical Theatre Writing.
