SONGwriter studio

Finish the songs you’re stuck on. If you have a song that’s almost there but not quite working, the issue is rarely talent. Each of these offers is designed to help you identify exactly what’s holding your song back and give you clear, actionable steps to fix it.

In these personalized songwriting sessions, you’ll share four original songs and receive detailed feedback within a one-on-one consultation to refine your work. Whether you’re struggling to finish a song, strengthen your chorus, or elevate your lyrics, these offerings provides the targeted guidance you need to move forward with confidence.

This service combines real-world industry insight with practical songwriting techniques you can immediately apply to your music.

Perfect for:

  • Songwriters with unfinished or “stuck” songs

  • Artists preparing for recording or release

  • Students looking for professional-level feedback

  • Writers who want to improve structure, lyrics, and melody

PRIVATE STUDIO

Private lessons in voice and songwriting designed to help you build technique, confidence, and artistic identity.

I am available for lessons to students of all abilities and levels in Songwriting and Contemporary Voice.  My goal as a teacher is to help students find their individual voices and skills and to help them be curious in their discovery of how they will use their curiosity in the world.  

Lessons are tailored to the individual needs and desires of each person.

With over 30 years of experience teaching voice and songwriting, I utilize many different sources of information to inform my voice teaching including motor learning principles, exercise physiology and vocal pedagogy. 

I love all genres and styles of music, however I specialize in popular and contemporary music styles including Singer-Songwriter, Jazz, Pop (all kinds), Folk, Country, R & B, Soul, and Rock.

Sessions are scheduled weekly or bi-weekly.  Less frequent lessons will be accommodated, however preference will be given to those students on a regular repeating schedule.

 

TESTIMONIALS

I literally came out of this class feeling less afraid of songwriting and a bit more hopeful about the whole process. Working on songwriting exercises was the coolest thing ever and ended up being fun instead of nerve wrecking, which I truly did not expect - Maya

Working with Kat made me aware of the anatomy of my instrument as well as provided me with the tools to utilize, strengthen, and maintain my voice.  Only a professor so deeply passionate about their craft would dedicate themselves to study the art of vocalization.  I am just lucky enough that Kat could share her passion with me. - Jared

Kat's way of teaching is life changing and affected me not only in my music, but in my life. Most importantly she taught me the meaning and importance of confidence and belief in yourself. Kat showed me how to become comfortable and in love with my voice and talent. - Sydney

Beyond technique, a lesson with Kat is one in confidence, self-respect, and the true emotion behind music that makes us feel. Kat doesn't teach singing, she teaches performing. I am more comfortable with my vocal and stage presence now then I ever have been- and being able to breath correctly and sing with ease doesn't hurt either. - Alex
