What Makes Us Different from Ordinary Vocal Training?

Turn your vocal lesson into a finished recording!

With ordinary vocal training, you get instruction but you don't get to record the actual audio to listen to. Each week after your lesson, we'll e-mail you a recording of the best performance you did during that lesson so you can listen to it during the week and identify areas where you need to improve. Over time you'll end up with finished tracks you can release to family and friends. Once you have completed several songs you can even burn them to a CD as an album or EP. We offer full duplication and professional packaging in-house.

See visual feedback of your pitch control

With our advanced software we can not only playback each vocal take, we can visually show you your detailed pitch note by note. When you hear and see the problem areas, they become that much easier to fix. It's an entirely new approach to vocal instruction. We make vocal lessons fun and exciting because you are working on a finished track while you learn!

Gain confidence and control over your vocal performance.

Confidence is one of the most important characteristics of a good vocalist. Confidence comes from knowing you can sing a song with pitch and tone control and deliver an emotional performance that is star quality. Confidence is something you gain as you see progress in your abilities. With our lessons, you get to hear every take. We find this type of feedback so much better than just having your instructor tell you what they heard. As you improve by hearing your various takes, and even visually seeing them, your confidence will blossom.

FAQ

Tell me more about the instructor?

My name is Mark McLelland. I have been in the music business more years than I can count. I started back in the 70's in a local rock band. I was the lead singer and bass player. We performed at Stake Dances, High School Dances and Private Parties. We were together for over five years. We even recorded an album back in the day. Next I was in a Duo where we both sang and played guitar and bass. We played at restaurants, weddings and night clubs fro about three years.

In 1986 I opened ELS Studio (which later became ELS Productions). This had been a dream of mine for years to have a recording studio. We grew and evolved into the digital studio we have now. In the 90's I teamed up with two local lyric writers. They wrote lyrics and I would write the music and melody lines. I then recorded each songs demo and they sent them off to publishers. We signed around 100 contracts with various publishers and I learned a lot about the music business during this time.

In 1991 a small label in Pennsylvania (Allegheny Records) signed 10 of our songs to publishing contracts and asked me to release an album with those ten songs. I recorded the album in my studio, playing 95% of all the instruments and singing all of the vocals. I ended up in Nashville singing at the Bluebird Cafe and performing at several venues for a week in the summer of 1992. The title song from the album charted to number 13 on the independent charts and even cracked into the top 100 on Billboard. The album was also released in Europe and received a lot of airplay there.

At this point I either needed to move to Nashville and pursue a career ( a spotty proposition at best), or keep my family in Utah where they all wanted to be. I chose the latter and never looked back. The studio has continued on through the years and just recently we moved to Elk Ridge Utah to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city. I have five beautiful children and my wife and I have been together for over 40 years. She has hung in with me through the ups and downs of the music business. I love music and have a passion for producing great songs. I hope I can help others enjoy the music business and become better at utilizing the talent they have.
