About

About

Hello! My name is Dave Lorimer and I am musician and singing teacher based here in Aberdeen, helping students of all abilities develop their vocal talents.

I have had a life-long interest in music and song, having become hooked on music after competing and winning my first singing competition at the age of 10.

I learned to play harmonica and guitar at school and have studied with some well known singers and performers on the Scottish Jazz and Traditional Music scene.

My approach to lessons and to teaching is organic; it grows from the student’s voice and from my knowledge of what it takes to make best use of that voice and meet the needs of the song. The ability to sing is everyone’s gift, it is also a craft that needs to be nurtured.

In our first lesson I will scope out your needs and find your vocal range, take a look the type of songs you like, sing a few songs together and look at how to find the right key for a song.

I understand that every student is different and will have different tastes in music. I will make sure that we aim towards learning the music that personally inspires you whilst still picking up all the relevant theory.

Lessons are currently charged at £25 for a one hour session.
