end of an era (RIP mustache)

when i went to Lake Placid to continue working on original music with my producer Joey, I didn't shave. It wasn't intentional, I just didn't feel the need to. Then when I got home I just kept not shaving it. And that's when it dawned on me, I'm going back to the beard. It's meant to be.

Pyretta update

Pyretta is safe at my apartment, she’s 14 years old with stage 2 renal disease, and hyperthyroidism. I have been bringing her to the vet monthly. We are experiencing a big heat wave in NY and my studio doesn’t have reliable AC , she needs a little more care than what I’m used to doing.

In the past few months, she hasn’t been eating like she used to, it’s been a struggle to get ...

What happens at the studio when music isn’t being made

Some weighted vest pull-ups and holds.

Also 200 weighted vest squats, 200 walking lunges (100 per leg) , and 500 calf raises.

What kind of music do you connect with?

Lately I’ve been realizing that years of dissecting styles, analyzing singers and vocal techniques, and critical listening has actually made it very difficult to listen to music for fun.

A lot of the time I’m listening to music I’m planning on learning, listening to music I’ve recorded to be critical of the mix/performance, or I’m listening to music in the car while driving in ...

On my way to see a voice therapist (also I spilled coffee on my shirt)

A few weeks ago I went into the city to see an ENT (Ear Nose and Throat) doctor that Melissa Cross referred me to. While being examined, having me sing with a scope down my throat, he told me that my vocal cords were in good shape. However he noticed that I use a lot of tension and force when I sing, I’m using muscles that I don’t need to be using.

He referred me to a voice therapist...

No cover this week

Hey everyone, there’s been a change. I’ll be making less cover songs. I’m not doing weekly anymore. I’ll be doing cover songs every 2 weeks. What this means:


1. More videos where I break down vocals and analyze songs/ show my process of recording and producing vocals using my cover songs as an example


2. More 20 style videos, I actually plan on doing ...

In Colorado with Chris Liepe

We are out here working on some analysis videos, a free warm ups course, and also a structured vocal course to be released in the future.

Can’t wait to share this with you all! I’m already learning more about my voice than I knew before, and it hasn’t even been 2 days yet.

More to come!

Why I Put Myself Through Hell (New Vlog to be released tomorrow on my second channel)

This is going to be released on my second channel, it's the start of a new chapter where I'll be sharing more of my personal growth journey. I thought it would be good to share here first, because a lot of you have gone above and beyond to support me and you should know the driving force behind all of it. This is the core of what keeps me going.

On Thursday I’m going to upload the next video here on Patreon, its official release will be Friday. I think this one came out great, it was a lot of fun to make. Reminded me of the old days of doing 100s of vocal takes , no short cuts haha.

Anytime I do a Queen style I’m reminded why they’re one of my favorites. Their harmony arrangements trigger a certain kind of nostalgia that c...
