I’ve only had 3 lessons so far and it’s been an absolute world of difference in the power of my voice. Sean really takes your favorite genres and goals and tailors your learning with those in mind. Highly recommend for anyone looking to take their voice to the next level!

It’s wild how I found the voice mechanic, but I am glad I did. No doubt the best teacher, artist, and overall human being to work with. I went in for my first singing lesson ever and booked a second lesson for the very next day. Not only are you going to see a crazy improvement after the first session, but you’re gonna have so much fun! Singing in a studio with a microphone has always been something I’ve wanted to, and I was so nervous going into this- I had no idea what to expect. He pretty much held my hand through it all, and we did a little bit of everything. One of the best parts about taking lessons with Sean is that you can tell how much he loves it. Going to wrap this up now… but from a beginner thinking about getting involved in music to a person who’s been pursuing music their whole life, this is where you want to go to take wherever you’re at to the next level!

Sean is awesome! He tailors lessons to your personal goals in a comfortable judgment-free environment. After my first lesson I had already greatly improved in terms of my singing and metal vocals (screaming/growling). Either with experience and looking to improve technique or without and looking to learn how to get start, highly recommended for aspiring singers and frontmen!

Definitely check out The Voice Mechanic! Sean helped me learn how to project my voice while singing, which was a huge goal of mine. We’ve covered other techniques during rehearsals that I’ve been wanting to learn too. I always look forward to a session because my voice gets stronger each time. Other vocalists I know recommended Sean and told me I would be very pleased with the results in my voice after just the first session, which was true. I’m very happy with how well I’m projecting and singing now!! 😃 🎤🎧🎼🎹🎸🎷

When I sang for him the other day, just messing around with his guitar 🎸, he was totally shocked!! 😆😅 We’re going to sing a duet at an upcoming show. He had no idea I could bring it like that. I told him you taught me how to project my voice, so he’s very excited to come see you

Sean you’re absolutely magic! I gave a presentation today and everyone could hear me because I can project my voice now! People used to have to tell me to speak up but now I can do it effortlessly. You’ve changed my life!

 


Been going to Sean for 3 months and my singing has drastically improved since. Sean really focuses/hones in on using proper technique in his lessons. I’ve been working on building a strong foundation which has been the key for having more power, holding notes longer, and singing on pitch. Also a bonus we both have hard rock in common and the Studio is next to the iconic Sunset/Vine area!

Sean is a great teacher! Really fun and safe environment. He has really helped strengthen my voice and he has a lot of patience with his teaching style. Musically gifted for sure.

Been working with Sean for a few months now. Really improving on my voice and singing technique. I was damaging my throat prior to lessons, trying to sing in a heavy/loud band and now can sing for full sessions a few times a week and not damage my throat. Picked Sean cause he’s got a rock vibe and knows great bands and singers.

Sean is awesome. Had my first lesson yesterday after about a year with another coach. While I learned some good stuff from my first coach and had some break throughs, Seans lesson FAR exceeded anything I had previously learned. It felt like the first time I was actually singing! My voice always felt weak and like I can’t sing loud at all but within the first 30 minutes Seans technique brought on a big breakthrough for me. I’m grateful and will be going to see him weekly to further my progress. I highly recommend Sean to anyone trying to take their voice to the next level.

Sean is da best!! 🥰😻🫶He not only helped me technically develop my vocals but he truly simplified the singing process and helped me find my true/raw voice which is so much more powerful than I could’ve ever imagined on my own. He’s not only my vocal coach but he’s become a sincere friend who I know is always looking out for my best interests, just a really good guy to have in my circle. Luv ya Sean!👊🤘🎸🎤🎹💙🖤❤️

 Highly recommend the Voice Mechanic to anyone seeking to sing or more vocal control. His breathing technique has changed everything for me. After 5 lessons my voice sounds fuller, stronger and I feel at ease when I sing.

 Sean really is the voice mechanic. In my first lesson, I was stuck on the low notes and couldn’t hit any high notes. After a few lessons with Sean, I can easily sing high notes now. Highly recommended!

After just a few vocal training classes I’ve noticed a big difference in my live performance vocals during my shows. I was watching my latest performance video from my show over the weekend and I was perfectly on pitch with my music and did it with ease when I had somewhat struggled in the past. I sounded like a true professional and I’m proud to say that Sean is really helping me become a great singer!

Before I met Sean, I didn’t know how to project at all. My small voice made it quite difficult to live my life whether it was answering questions in class or talking to my friends at busy locations. I love to sing, but always got hoarse after a few songs at karaoke night and had so much trouble with breath support that it negatively affected my pitch and volume. I began to believe that my voice was meant to be soft forever, but a couple of days ago, I screamed my way through a couple hours’ worth of songs and felt perfectly fine afterwards! And this was only after a couple months. ^_^ Sean is a fantastic teacher and musician and is totally transforming the way I use my voice, and he has done the same for so many students that came before me.

Sean is an incredible teacher. He is truly the voice mechanic! I went to a few teachers before I met him and I knew they weren’t right for me. I was also doing singing courses which helped a little bit but my progress was slow. In just two lessons with Sean, my voice has become better than I could have ever imagined. Not kidding! It still shocks me when I practice. He really knows what he’s doing. If you’re looking to improve quickly, contact him, take a lesson and trust what he teaches. You won’t be sorry!

I was gifted a session with Sean for my birthday – a complete surprise and not something I’d have considered doing on my own (I never thought I could carry a tune). It was a bit terrifying to walk into his studio to be honest!

Sean was completely down to earth and quickly put me at ease, then taught me how to belt out some rock! I haven’t had this much fun in a long time… definitely looking forward to some more time with the Voice Mechanic! HIGHLY recommended!

Sean is a super cool guy, I had issues with my voice from singing improperly prior to working with him. He told me he could fix my issue in a few lessons and he did, the first lesson made a huge change in the way I projected my voice. I had to stop taking lessons due to personal reasons but he is very experienced, he also has these cool stories about meeting people in Hollywood.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value

I’ve had 2 lessons with The Voice Mechanic so far, and I’m so excited to really learn the technique of belting and projecting the sound.
I’ll highly recommend his lessons to anyone who wanna challenge their voice and knowledge. I’ve my 3rd lesson booked, and I’m not stopping before I feel like I’ve gotten the technique down.

Besides the high value knowledge you’ll get from Sean, he’s also a really nice person who’ll make you comfortable while singing!

The name “voice mechanic” is very appropriately suited.  He’s amazingly nonchalant about his very keen ear and precise diagnosis.  Within an hour and legitimately mean one hour (actually less because we were talking about a collab between Elton John and Ozzy Osborne and soundtrack from Hunchback of Notre Dame) I essentially added rocket fuel to my singing voice.  Before I came in, I had basic technique, but my voice was unintentionally breathy, I choked certain vowels and would really tense up trying to sing high notes.  I sang a song for Sean.  He did a diagnosis and we went through some exercises to familiarize myself with internal sensations of the breath-vocal mechanics.  After a single session, when I performed the same song, it had clarity, power, frontal resonation, confidence, WAY more projection and it was the missing link to what I’m currently looking for in my voice. I will finally be able to add challending ballads, classic rock, songs from movies (like the Greatest Showman) all to my set list because I won’t be limited to the breathy coffeehouse type singing that I’ve done my whole life.  WOOOO!

Sean is really gifted at what he does.
No matter how shy or nervous you are or even if you have a ton of technique training, bite the bullet and go see him, his method works. I have experienced a tremendous transformation in how I sound but more importantly my confidence and willingness to get out of my comfort zone and go for it. I am so grateful to have found him, game changer!!!

EVERYONE SHOULD TAKE A LESSON HERE. WOW! Word on the street is that Sean is the one to see to be able to work on your voice. I was able to immediately improve and work on my voice. My day job is as an executive for a major telecommunication company. I am a public speaker, magician, and guitar player. I have been getting more serious about improving my technique. Sean was able to work with me and work on my general musicianship and improve my voice for my public speaking. See him now. He is smart, organized, and knows his stuff when it comes to your voice. Go now! Don’t wait. He will make you better.

Great coach!  Over the course of 3 lessons Sean, aka ‘the Voice Mechanic”, led me to leaps and bounds of progress in my singing.  It was certainly worth every cent.  He’s comfortable to sing with and there is never a sense of urgency or pressure.  Great coach. Thanks Sean

Today, I had a vocal lesson for the first time at The Voice Mechanic by Sean Lee. Compared to the singing video that we recorded before the lesson and after 35 minutes into the lesson, my voice became much better. I could feel that my voice has grown as well. I still have a lot of stuff to work on, but I would like to improve my skills and keep working hard.

Sean’s vocal technique is beyond AMAZING! If you’re in need of belting out your songs the way they were intended to without making a scratch to your throat, (or your wallet) then he’s the mechanic to come to. Any vocal coach can try and teach you. A vocal MECHANIC can fix the main issue in such a short time and give you the result that will last you a lifetime. Sean IS that mechanic, without a doubt!

I want to be better at projecting my voice so I ask a friend for recommendation as I have zero experience in singing lesson. She told me: “Sean is going to transform you.” That’s a lot of expectation to live up to.
Sean is super patient and tried all method to make me not as nervous. Even after the first class I could hear a big improvement of my voice. The class is really about training the habit of using the right muscles. Originally I was only going to take the lessons for a couple months but as the class goes on I can start seeing myself doing a cover. That’s was the least thing I imagine I could do before. Thanks Sean for all the encouragement and you funny comments!

If you feel like you’re lacking some oomph in your singing voice then Sean is the guy to see. I’m a professional musician & singer, but I always felt a little held back by my inability to really belt when the song called for it. Within twenty minutes Sean had me singing louder and with less effort and strain than I ever had before. I’ve had three lessons with him so far and he has completely enhanced my confidence as a singer.
I had been wasting my time trying to learn vocal technique from YouTube videos. I’m so glad I found Sean. I can’t recommend him enough. Freedom Fry Music

While on the search for a voice coach, I came across Sean Lee on yelp. I wrote him a message, and immediately he got back to me w/ a quote and appointment times. The very next day, I went in with a friend who wanted help learning how to properly sing so as not to lose breath mid-song. Within thirty minutes, Sean taught him many great techniques that my friend couldn’t stop buzzing about. Just the difference between pre-lesson and post-lesson recordings was incredible. Sean was easy to talk to, a master at vocal techniques, and an all around nice guy. Not to mention, you can’t beat that price for the expertise you’re getting. Definitely would recommend.

I’m so glad I found Sean! I recently was invited to record a demo. I thought I’d be singing in a soft tone. When the time came to sing the song the producer needed me to belt. I was only confident enough to do it because of my lessons with the Voice Mechanic. He really strengthened my voice and made me more secure in my sound. If you’re looking to improve your sound he’s your guy!

If you are wanting to take your vocals to a whole new level, Sean is DEFINITELY the mechanic you want to come to. He’s truly a unique kind of coach. He knows how to stretch your voice to its fullest because you will find that he knows YOUR voice better than you know your own voice.
You will be blown away as to what he can do in only one lesson. I have absolutely no experience in singing but just a desire to be able to belt out songs the way friends and family do, but desiring to do it well. So after only 2 months of lessons, I can honestly & confidently say that I would not shy away from a karaoke scene any longer. Sean is that AMAZING!!!
This whole review is coming from someone who is as shy and quiet as a mouse. So if I’m giving Sean unlimited stars, it’s for a very honest reason!

I’ve been singing in bands all my life, but lately I kept blowing out my voice and I knew I was doing something wrong. I’ve been to these coaches that tell you to load up with air and blow it out, However, That technique was like taking a cheese grater to my vocal chords! So i knew i needed help. I saw Sean’s ad on Yelp, and called him, In one lesson he showed me what I was doing wrong, and its a great thing i contacted him because i was struggling to sing like I used to, in fact I was miserable. I love to sing and lost my chops. I’ve been to four lessons and I’m hitting highs in Ozzy Osbourne’s songs, Chris Cornell, Chester Bennigton. My falsetto is even coming back although Sean emphasizes High Belting, like opera singers! He’s simply amazing and he’s been doing this a long time. If your vocals are struggling, I would only recommend Sean, because he’s extremely intelligent, talented and easy to work with!! If you love to sing but are struggling to hit all those dulcet tones, there’s only one choice; The Voice Mechanic!

I started taking vocal lessons with Sean 3 weeks ago. Its just amazing. I couldn’t imagine a better teacher and I have a lot of fun with Sean too.
After 3 weeks I already hear and feel a huge difference in my voice.
Definitely will try to take as much lessons as possible during my stay in LA.
In the beginning I was too shy to sing properly because I didn’t have any experience in singing at all, but Sean gave me a lot of confidence and just made me feel good and relaxed, so I finally was self-confident enough to really sing as clean and good as I could.
His feedback is great and he lets you sing whatever you want to ( even Nickelback;) ) and helps you to improve in your own style of singing.
So I can definitely recommend to take vocal lessons with Sean. Even just one lesson helped me a lot and I could already improve. He told me a lot about my voice in general too.
Unfortunately I have to go back to Germany soon. I would have loved to spend more time with Sean and have a lot of fun with him.
Sean, I will definitely enjoy my next/last lessons with you, can´t wait to see you next week again !!!

This is an update with the voice mechanic my classes with Sean have been great. My voice has gotten stronger in a few lessons. My confidence has gotten better because I no longer struggle with the breathing like I use too. There is more room for improvement of course!!!
Sean has chosen songs for me that a few months ago…..not having the proper technique.
I would have never thought of singing!!! I really enjoy the fact that now I can sing these songs..again there is room for improvement!!!
He really listens to your voice and knows how to push (gently but firmly) you to achieve your singing goals. This makes me more determined to reach my fullest vocal potential. Sean is very patient, kind and very encouraging! He believes that if you have the desire yes you can sing!!!!

I’ve looked around and Sean is the best singing teacher in town. Prior to learning with him
I had no singing experience what so ever. I never even sang for fun alone! But after just 1 hour with the voice mechanic I not only learned to sing my favorite songs but it projected and sounded like something I actually wouldn’t mind listening to!
I have a very low voice so I was concerned that I would never be able to sing high. But after like 3 lessons I was singing a whole octave higher! (Which is way higher than I ever imagined I could sing) I recommend Sean to any aspiring rock singers that want to see immediate results in their voice.

I am considered to tone deaf, flat and breath through my chest (as I found recently). Sean makes it just so easy to sing, belt and do that in tune.
I chose to work with him because makes singing accessible and easy to learn. Most importantly I dont feel like I’m being judged at all. Anything I want to try out I get to try.
Most importantly, he is just the most genuine and also one nicest people I have had the chance to meet. He goes way over and beyond and gives you everything he has.
I dont write reviews generally cause I don’t like giving bad feedback about anyone’s business. I just chose not go there or use their services. Having said that, if someone goes out of his way to help me achieve somethng I couldn’t dream of doing, I will most def take the time to write a review.
Mr. Voice Mechanic:)))) thank you from the bottom of my heart

I’m not a big “yelper” but this guy deserves my 5 star review. My son got a call back to audition for LACHSA, it really is a big deal for him. We had tried voice lessons in the past but my experience was an ok one, since I had no way of telling if his voice had improved or not. However I decided to give The Voice Mechanic a try, simply because I wanted him to improve my son’s volume. I liked what I saw on his website but the real surprise came on the first lesson. He improved my son’s voice in the first hour! He was able to teach his technique in just one session and for that I feel very grateful. In only three sessions he has helped my son’s voice flourish beautifully. One of my concerns was that my son would force his voice at times, after The Voice Mechanic he can sing loud and without loosing his breath as he used to. His audition is this weekend and he’s very confident he will do great! The Voice Mechanic listens to your needs and gets right down to business!

Sean’s the real deal–this man knows his stuff! In just an hour the SO learned more about technique and range than he’d learned in the last 20 years, so that pretty much speaks for itself. Not only that, but Sean was totally accommodating, squeezing us in on the day after Christmas (even AFTER we got stuck in Santa Monica traffic and were 15 minutes late!) since we were only visiting for the weekend…I’d highly recommend checking him out if you’re looking for a skilled “mechanic” to help tune YOUR voice!

Sean really knows what he’s doing! By the first 30 minutes I was already singing more comfortably and with more confidence. I see myself training with Sean for a long time. Down to earth guy with great technique!

When I took my first lesson with Sean, right away I was shown the right placement and breathing which increased my power. After that first lesson I did not feel the soreness I used to after an hour of hard rock singing. I thought it was normal that the voice would hurt after singing hard for an hour or so, but now I don’t get sore anymore and my band have told me I sound more powerful and louder… a huge improvement after only 4 lessons. I will highly recommend the voice mechanic. Ricky – Rebel Hotel

I noticed a huge difference in my voice in only 20 minutes with Sean. The technique he teaches is incredibly effective, and the price is more than reasonable for top-level voice coaching. I’ll definitely be going back to see The Voice Mechanic!

I’ve only had a few voice classes in my life but I will never forget this one 🙂 I literally felt like I left with a new voice, or one I just excavated. Sean teaches a very effective and efficient technique and is also very attentive, patient and has a wonderful aura. His rates are very reasonable and he’s a very generous coach. I would definitely recommend him for pro singers as well as actors who just want to strengthen their voice. *****

I was always told that I have a “unique” sounding voice. I am from the Midwest and we speak with a nasal tone to our dialect. I moved to Los Angeles to become an actor. I was told already that I missed out on the lead role for a national commercial because my voice did not fit my physique and look. The casting agents wanted me for the commercial so bad but could not get past my voice and the lead went to another LA talent. I could always sing pretty decent because I would enunciate the words with power and that nasal pitch is gone when I sing. I went to Shawn for two reasons. To become a better singer but also have control of my voice when speaking. Immediately on the first session within 30 seconds Shawn pointed out my nasal sound and why I did that for so many years. Shawn showed me a simple method of letting the sound travel out of my cheek bones instead of my nose which makes the sound resonate and carry in a magnificent way. I was so excited that I decided I need Shawn once per week to retrain the way I speak because its only natural to fall back into my old way of speaking. It is all about retraining and projecting your voice and not holding it back. I must say the exercises are pretty intense. A lot of work with the diaphragm. Shawn’s approach is fun and he keeps it simple to get to the root of the problem quickly. Thanks Sean!

I’m amazed with the singing lesson. I was able to sing better than I’ve ever had in my life thanks to Sean Lee. I was able to learn a better approach to singing than what I was previously applying to the craft. I’m able to sing notes I normally wouldn’t have been able to sing. I felt my voice reach new levels of power. You could really tell the difference between before and after. I feel more confident about my singing abilities. I could walk into a room and sing with a sense of accomplishment. The results have been great.

Sean Lee is the best vocal coach I’ve ever had, bar none. As a recovering drummer, my musical abilities weren’t only limited to one discipline, they were almost non-existent. No voice, no ear, no technique, no confidence, nothing except a late-blooming decision to try and scratch up enough musicality to sing a simple song. Sean’s deep musical knowledge and engaging personality have made working with him a very pleasant and rewarding experience for me. He not only teaches me to sing the notes, he demonstrates how they work in the context of musical structure and how they fit into the scales, arpeggios, keys, modes, the whole chimichanga. I couldn’t be more pleased with his instruction and I recommend him highly to anyone who want to sing professionally, as a hobby, whatever.

Sean Lee has really helped me improve my vocals. If fact, i went to karaoke recently with some friends and sang. my friends were so impressed with my vocal improvement that they cheered and told me how significantly my singing has improved. I couldn’t believe the results have been so great. ~ Dezzy Blaze (Nightshade)

I was blown away! Within 30 minutes I was singing from the right place and able to reach notes that I’d usually crack on. I was able to sing with rasp, which I was never able to do without getting hoarse. My voice felt much more powerful and my projection improved quickly. My overall tone sounded much stronger and less airy.
I took classical training vocal lessons which was always scales and had me singing the wrong way. My voice was always airy, weak and would crack often. When I first came in, Sean pointed that out to me right away and showed me how to sing properly. He picked up that my voice was airy and over-exerted when trying to sing. This was only my first lesson, I can’t wait to see how much I progress with the lessons to come.

I loved this experience! Sean Lee is a caring and very capable vocal coach and he has taught me how to sing – my fantasy guilty pleasure. I highly recommend the Voice Mechanic if you want to have your vocal dreams come true.
