Louis's method was simply fantastic, with lessons for vocal management, song structure, and more importantly workflow management. Priceless!

Louis makes you feel like you're in the same room with him and you can easily tell he loves what he does. He was entertaining while being informative. He explained everything thoroughly and was hands on, but had fun during the process.
