Yes! I have extensive experience coaching everything from solo artists, duos, to bands with 3, 4, 5, up to bands with 10-20 members. I have also coached choirs with  over 50 singers.

What does a typical process look like?

When producing concerts with a band, we first meet for a discussion about goals and setlist. Then we work 3-5 days in a rehearsel space, venue, or arena. My processes are often different in length, as it depends on the size of the concert and tour.
