In all, the services provided include: * Full music production and recording services * Vocal lessons and performance instruction (in the studio with progress recordings) * Piano/musicianship instruction Contact me to speak about how I may extend my services to you. My clients appreciate my services because they receive quality music services that exceed their expectations, and I believe you will too.

David recorded a cover song for me which had some changes to the melody. It was my first time recording a song. I was nervous and completely unfamiliar with the process. I also needed him to play the music for me and do all the editing and mixing. (Frankly, I wasn't even aware of those terms or what they meant.) David was amazingly helpful and patient. He worked with me and explained the process. He asked questions to guide the development of the song. He figured out the timing of the song, quickly learned the melody and chords for the song, some of which were completely original, and invented a few of his own note sequences on the spot. We recorded the entire song in 6 hours and David had the final product ready for me two days later. I am so pleased. David made me feel at ease, was professional, really knowledgeable, and kind. I highly recommend.

David has helped me tremendously in such a short amount of time! I feel so much more confident in my vocal ability and have learned a lot. He is very knowledgable in all aspects of music. I have sang all my life but really needed the support and expertise of a talented vocal coach and that's what I got from my experience with David. I'll be recording soon and look forward to more work with David as I grow and preform more as an artist.

I've been taking voice lessons with Dave for almost a year now, and it's one of the best decisions I've made. I've loved singing my entire life, but I've always felt like I wasn't good enough. It turns out I just needed to tweak my technique. I've definitely improved immensely over the past year, and others (including professional singers) have noticed and complimented me on it as well when I've sang at gigs. I've learned effective warm up techniques, how to control my voice, how my posture and mouth placement are important for my vocals as well, and so much more. He's also very encouraging and patient. I definitely wouldn't sound the way I do today without him. He's given me the confidence to look into performing more in this new year. I'm more motivated than ever to see where my voice can take me and very excited to continue working with him. I was also lucky enough to record a song with him and was able to see what an amazing producer he is as well! Anyone looking for a great, knowledgeable, experienced vocal instructor and producer; look no further! Dave's your man!

FAQs

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    The common types of jobs I do for my clients involve vocal performance instruction and recording and music production. I also teach musicianship with piano instrument instruction. I coach professional artists and vocalists teaching techniques (larynx position, breathe support, open sound, relaxed jaw etc...) that contribute to singing well and to better live and recorded performances. I also provide full studio music services like composing, arranging, writing, recording, editing, and mixing. Most times a client needs help with the direction of their project including song production, music arrangement, vocal and instrument performance. Throughout the project, starting with pre-production and ending with mixing (and mastering), I meet with artists, listen to their ideas and assess their production needs. When needed I help create a project concept (music genre ideas among other things) based on the artists vision and musical direction. All of this helps to ensure the clients involvement throughout the production process and leads to a successful music project.
