50,000+ hours of experience training singers and producing music in just about every genre from musical theatre to pop to country and classic rock means stylistically I can take you where you want to go. It all starts with vocal technique.

I wrote the first book in history (The Science of Singing High Notes) that explains why anyone with a healthy voice can learn to sing extremely high notes comfortably and safely. Before the 1993 publishing of my book, no vocal coach had ever made this claim. I’ve trained thousands of baritones, basses, tenors, altos and sopranos how to sing a high C (C5) in full voice (not falsetto) and higher successfully since 1982. 

Singers have flown from around the world to train with me including France, Germany, Austria, The Netherlands, Japan and the United Kingdom. One girl from India I trained that flew to my studio here in Orange County to train six days per week, two hours per day (Pawni Pandey/Laila Main Laila) extended the range of her voice by 10 notes and now has over a billion views on her most popular YouTube music video.

Watch the video below to get an overview of what training is like with me at my studio in Orange County, CA.

🎁 Book your introductory lesson and I'll include a FREE copy of my book, The Science of Singing High Notes.

Train with me in a professional recording studio using world-class microphones and preamps. The audio quality is superb! Your first lesson will be about 45 minutes long. For the first 15 minutes we'll be going over the first few chapters of my book, "The Science of Singing High Notes." I'll explain to you how your voice works and why the training is so effective. The last half hour will be loaded with vocal exercises designed to take your singing to the next level.

I've trained many professional singers with fantastic results, but I love training beginners! Including kids starting at age 7. If you have absolutely no experience with singing, then you are a prime candidate for great training!

If you are having your lesson here at my studio or remotely using Teams video conferencing technology, I record all of the lessons to MP3 audio files and send the audio files to you via email using Dropbox so you can practice at home.

I use Microsoft Teams video conferencing technology for remote, online training. This technology works so well now that when I teach, I hear you as well as if you were standing right next to me in the studio singing, even though you may be having your lesson from your apartment in London.

I’ve given remote, online lessons to singers around the world for years now. It’s a proven, effective way to learn how to sing a high C without straining and improve your vocal technique without ever leaving your home! If you live close to the studio, my recommendation is to come in for in-person lessons. But if you live a ways away and/or can’t easily commute to my studio, remote, online training works great!

My training is very effective buy don't take my word for it. Check out these videos below to see what singers I've worked with have to say about their training.

Start by watching David Michael Frank perform "Heart Attack" by Demi Lovato in the original key, followed by his testimonial and more student success stories. To watch more testimonials, click here to visit the Testimonials page.

Not a requirement, but I would highly recommend completing the 12 hour intensive vocal technique fundamentals lessons BEFORE we start working on songs. These lessons will give you the skill to be able to follow my direction during a song session. Famous singers like Noodles from the OFFSPRING and Cove Reber from Saosin all completed their 12 hour intensive fundamentals lessons as the first part of their training so you're in good company.

Beginning and pro singers wanting to improve fast get the best results training six days per week, one hour lesson per day, which completes the 12 hour intensive series fundamental lessons in two weeks. This is a powerful way to advance and singers that do this typically get a better grasp of vocal technique faster than those who take a lesson or two a week and practice on their own in between sessions.

A good game plan is to train daily for the first 12 hours (vocal technique fundamentals), then (long term) take one or two advanced vocal technique lessons per week while working on songs under my direction. You get to the same place whether or not you knock out the first 12 hours in 12 days or 12 weeks, but my students would tell you it works better if you see me more often.

Training daily is the best way to get spectacular results fast, but if your schedule doesn't allow meeting up that often no worries. Every lesson will take your vocal technique to a higher level.

I'm expert in helping singers who need to get in shape fast so If you have a performance or audition coming up quickly and need to get your voice sounding great, I can help.

After you've completed the 12 Lesson Fundamental Series we start the Advanced Vocal Mastery Technique Lessons and song work. The advanced lessons are divided into ten, 10 hour series (100 hours), each emphasizing one harmonic interval with lots of ear training. It's very comprehensive and will leave you with a complete understanding of your voice and how to use it.

Working on songs is seriously fun! I'll be working with you line by line explaining how to nail every aspect of the style including vocal tone, vibrato, pronunciation, intonation and cool tricks like vocal fires, adding grit and singing with controlled (and safe) raspiness. Our goal is to sound as good or better than your favorite singers after training with me.

A big part of how I help the singers I train is writing, arranging, recording and producing music for them. My recording studio is a great teaching tool when we start working on songs and a fabulous resource for singers that need a demo. I play guitar and keys at a pro level, and if you’d like to record your own original music, or original versions of covers, I can either write and produce the music or help you tweak music you already have that needs some finishing touches. The music I produce for you will be at a quality level that rivals the top studios/producers in the world. 

The coolest way to share the music I produce for you is definitely with a music video. I've produced/directed hundreds of music videos, many of which approach the quality of a short film with beautiful cinematography, lighting and overall video quality.
