With my 20+ years of experience as a professional singer/songwriter and performer, all skills that I teach which I incorporate into my "Heart Centered Vocal Coaching" programs (see below), I will work with you one-on-one with the art of songwriting. We’ll work through every step of the process together; from concept/idea, to formulating the melody via various techniques as well as writing the lyrics (e.g. improv/flow writing, etc.). Whether you just want to strictly focus on songwriting, or you want to mix songwriting with singing (which in my experience they obviously go hand in hand to a large degree), we can customize your lessons in the way that will best suite your needs and desires for your personal growth. I am looking forward to creating magic together with you.

Fawn is a warrior for justice. She rights all the wrongs of other teachers bad coaching. She turned my sons bad piano habits around in just 2 lessons! My daughter's bad vocal habits changed after the first lesson! I have never seen anything like it. We are grateful to have found her. I now have confidence that my children are in the best hands possible. I love the energy she puts into her recitals and the enormous student base she has is an affirmation that she is doing great things in California!

One of the most wonderful and rewarding things about the art of songwriting is that there are many different ways to approach making your own music. Arlington,TX music teacher Ric F. previously shared with us his tips on using rhythm as a guide to writing. Today, Ric would like to add another aspect to your understanding of writing songs, something he calls the "long-line" concept.
