Singing Lessons for Indie Singers
Indie singers have a unique edge to their singing that sits somewhere between rock an d pop. Passionate, without sounding "twee"; edgy, without coming across as aggressive.
​
Finding a balance in your singing voice is crucial for a memorable delivery, particularly if you are performing your own songs.
​
Professional singers have embraced remote singing lessons for years, now. Just like collaborative projects they know that physical location needn't be a limiting factor when it comes to getting the top-notch training.
​

FAQ
Do online singing lessons work?
The 2020 lockdown saw my biggest influx of students, all of whom learned online. Singers who work with me see huge leaps in their singing ability and enjoy high levels of personal and professional success.
​
Online singing lessons are, arguably the best way to learn, for a number of reasons:
No time consuming commute in hot weather or cold wind and rain, meaning less disruption for you and your family/friends/colleagues.
You can continue practicing your new skills immediately without having to wait until you get home.
Money saved on hiring a studio - which your singing teacher passes on to you.
Improve your singing and performance skills from anywhere in the world.
Constant improvement in technology.
Physical locality is no longer an issue - I have even taught one of Lady Gaga's crew while on tour!
​
My first singing student to embrace remote singing lessons was from Hong Kong. He was a singer who was preparing for his audition at the highly regarded Leeds Conservatoire. After working together for a year, he passed his audition and was offered a much sought after place.
​
Will online lessons work if I've never had singing lessons before?
Online singing lessons can be a fantastic way to boost your singing skills, regardless of your experience. In fact, the online learning environment can sharpen your active listening skills, supercharging your ability to connect with your voice and accelerate your development as a singer.

I have found that it takes an average of 2/3 years to reach a proficient level of singing with the strongest skills that professional recording and gigging singers need.
