You don’t need to bring anything special to your first lesson - just yourself and a willingness to explore! What you bring will depend a little on what we're working on:Singing:Bring along one song you enjoy singing! It can be a cover or an original. This simply gives me a chance to hear your voice in action and get a feel for where you’re at, so we can tailor the lesson to you and your goals. No need to prepare anything beyond that!Songwriting:Bring any lyrics, melodies, song ideas, voice memos, instruments, or works-in-progress you’d like to explore. You’re also very welcome to arrive with nothing prepared - we can create something together from scratch.Artist Development:Bring any current projects, recordings, demos, performance ideas, or goals you’d like to work towards. This might include a demo you want feedback on, upcoming gigs you’re preparing for, or questions about performing, recording and developing your artistry.Not sure what to bring? No problem! We’ll chat about where you’re at, what you’d like to work on, and what you’d like to get out of your lessons, then take it from there.

Of course! Parents are very welcome to sit in on lessons, particularly for younger students or if you’d like to get a feel for how we work together.I also encourage parents to take note of the exercises, techniques and ideas we work on, so you can help support and encourage practice at home.If you’d prefer to use the lesson as a chance to take a break, you’re welcome to wait nearby. The studio has full street-facing window visibility, so you can comfortably wait in your car while still being able to see into the studio.Whether you stay, pop out for a coffee, or wait in the car, the choice is completely yours.
