Are you Nashville bound? Get results! 20+ years experience. Masters level educator.

Is this you? Do you struggle to sing with ease and freedom? Are you frustrated because you can't seem to hit that high note without strain or tension? Are you tired of forever running out of breath, right when you need it most? Do you want to discover and expand your current vocal range? Would you like to sing with greater volume and power? Is this you? Does your voice crack or break at unexpected moments? Is your vocal tone too breathy? Too harsh? Too thin or nasal? Do you feel your voice lacks sufficient emotion, sensitivity and feeling? Do stage fright and nervousness sometimes get the best of you? Is that all-important audition just around the corner? Yes You Can! You can learn to sing with confidence. You can learn the secret of effective breath management. You can expand your current vocal range (including that elusive high note!) You can learn to sing with greater passion and depth. You can master your nerves and overcome your fear. All you need is the support and expertise of a skilled professional. Someone who is passionate about seeing you succeed. Someone who believes in you and is on your side. Someone to encourage you, challenge you and hold you accountable. A proven educator with the knowledge and experience to liberate your unique, authentic voice. My lessons are relaxed, friendly and results-oriented. I work to create an atmosphere of encouragement and discovery, while applying the very best in vocal technique. I also customize each lesson to focus on the unique needs and goals of each student. My passion is to enable those I work with, from beginner to advanced, to fully realize their singing potential! I currently teach online as well as from my home studio in Louisville, Kentucky.

About Eric W.

Hi, my name is Eric. For over 20 years, I've helped students of all ages maximize their vocal potential! By embracing a variety of vocal styles, from classical to contemporary, I've helped my students excel in musical theater, ace college auditions, travel as lead singers with rock bands, record music videos and even reach the higher levels of American Idol auditions! I hold both Bachelors and Masters degrees in vocal music and have directed vocal groups, traveling internationally to more than 10 countries on 4 continents. I've personally produced more than 20 full-scale musical/theatrical stage productions with casts of over 200 and ticketed audiences of up to 10,000. I'm also certified as a K-12 Public School Music Teacher and have taught Private Voice for 10 years on the university level. In addition, I've produced 3 studio albums and organized regional concert events for more than 40 nationally known artists including Randy Travis, Chris Tomlin, Michael W. Smith, Matthew West, Jeremy Camp and Mercy Me. My lessons are relaxed, friendly and results-oriented. I work to create an atmosphere of encouragement and discovery, while applying the very best in vocal technique. I also customize each lesson to focus on the unique needs and goals of each student. My passion is to enable those I work with, from beginner to advanced, to fully realize their singing potential! I currently teach online as well as from my home studio in Louisville, Kentucky.
