Private Live Online Artist Coaching Lessons & Classes

I've been vocal coaching for ten years and I've noticed that a good number of the people who find me are actually artists who are in need of something much bigger than just vocal training.
For a lot of people there is a big, fuzzy gap between having an artistic vision and actually uploading your tracks to Spotify. They figure it out eventually on their own but end up wasting time and money experimenting along the way.
These classes are not lessons on how to make it in the music industry or how to get famous; they are designed to light a path for you to get yourself efficiently and effectively through the songwriting, planning/budgeting, production, mix/master, branding, online design, copyright and DSP upload process...and the artistic blocks, fears and freak outs.
This goes for any genre and any size project (single, EP or album).

I will begin by looking over what a student is already doing or not doing, from a business standpoint, to benefit their creative work. We will then work out a plan that works for your specific needs and immediately execute it with regular check-ins for about six weeks. If more time is required, we'll decide when we get to that point.
As an established independent musician and owner of an indie label that's breaking new ground in the way business is done in music, and someone who's handled every twist and turn with success and never compromised his creative voice, I'm well suited to put you on the road that will not only lead you somewhere lucrative, but will be something you're comfortable with as an artist.
You never need to compromise your art, no matter what any business person may tell you. As an entrepreneur, you're endeavoring to be creative in your use of money, ideas, and the communication of your art. So, as a creative individual, you're better suited for this than you can
