I am writing because I was a former student of Dave Stroud.By writing this I hope that other hopeful singers do not get RIPPED OFF.
My story is after working with him for a LONG TIME - and spending thousands of dollars on lessons (his price per hour is now $300, which is basically narcissistic and highway robbery-) - - -my VOICE is not BETTER - it is worse!
-He is inappropriate with girls (I've seen him tap a bunch of girls butts and touch them) & guys too.
-Also he uses the fact that he has a few celebrity clients as his leverage to suck in new clients. The successful singers he works with ALREADY have great voices when they come to him... He has nothing to do with their success. -He's not even a singer. He only knows how to play the scale warm ups on his keyboard. Be aware of vocal coaches who can't even sing themselves... How could they really be a singing teacher??!!!
Hopefully whoever is reading this will realize that there are better coaches who teach the SLS technique or other techniques at 1/2 the price. Don't make the same mistake I did!
Best of luck to all you singers out there - hope this will help many people!
