Sammii O'Rourke

As a passionate vocalist, songwriter & performer, I aim to instil in my students a deep love for music, and help them develop the skills & techniques to find their own authentic voice. I am able to help students develop vocal stylings appropriate to a wide range of genres & help them learn the repertoire they choose, as well as help them workshop their own original songs and learn songwriting and lyric writing techniques. I am able to coach them in performance techniques & finding confidence, as well as helping them gain experience in studio/recording settings, utilising my own home studio. I can also teach music theory and aural training to help students become more rounded musicians.
