Meet your instructor, David Benites

For 13 years, David Benites has been developing his extreme vocal technique, constantly pushing the limits of his range, tone, and endurance. As an active member of the metal community, he identified a desperate necessity for proper vocal instruction that catered to the needs of modern, extreme metal vocalists. To answer that call, David created a unique vocal training method drawing from opera, country, musical theater, and R&B designed to help students of all ages sing and scream louder, longer, with greater range and without injury.

Book your first lesson today and find out what you’re capable of.
