David

An award-winning, educated Singer, Songwriter, Music Producer, and Music School Teacher with over 15 years in the Music Industry. I hold a Master's degree in Music, and I have performed live at venues ranging from clubs to large festivals, reaching audiences of up to 20,000 people! What distinguishes me from other instructors is my teaching approach; rather than concentrating on particular teachings or methodologies, I leverage my extensive experience to tailor my methods to the unique needs of each student. My methods are a bit different, but that's only because I'm prepared to show you the realistic side of music, not just what you can hear from 100s of sources online.

I started my journey in Music School at an early age which allowed me to try out and learn different instruments like Singing, Guitar, Piano, and Double Bass. I wasn't satisfied with just Classical Music, so as soon as I entered my teenage years, I started fronting numerous bands as a Vocalist, and sometimes a Bass player.
