We love Summer! She's an outstanding vocalist with a great ear for music. After two lessons we saw a great improvement and took away techniques that we can use for years to come. x

I began working with Summer when it became too difficult to get a lesson with my regular voice teacher due to his busy schedule. I had a solo audition with the Pasadena Master Chorale coming up and I wanted a top notch vocal teacher to give me some good coaching. Also, I'm a mature singer and for the first time I was struggling with some breath control issues. Although it was a little scary to go to someone new at a critical point in my singing experience, I couldn't have been more thrilled with Summer's exptertise and ability to communicate effectively. She immediately diagnosed the vocal issue and within 3 or 4 lessons, I was singing better than ever. And I got the solo! I look forward to working with Summer on a regular basis.

I started taking vocal lessons with Summer Watson about four months ago. Starting with our very first phone call, I felt Summer's desire to help me become the singer I wished to be. I have never had any formal training before working with Summer and I was afraid of what she might think of my current level and ability. From the start, she supported and encouraged me to feel free to give my all to each song, both vocally and emotionally. We begin each session with a number of warm-up exercises that I like to record and use at home for practice. Something I love about our sessions is that Summer encourages me to tell her what I want to focus on. When I have a song I'm working on, I bring a track to the studio, I perform the song and Summer gives feedback and technical instruction all along the way. Summer's praise is genuine and heartfelt and her critiques are warm and honest. Summer has a special way of describing techniques that has allowed me to grasp and learn some difficult concepts and expand my abilities. Her training isn't limited to vocals only, she has given me crucial guidance on my performance and artistry. There were times that I encountered some difficulties while practicing at home and Summer gave me some tips over the phone which I felt was "above and beyond", but she assured me it was all part of her service as a vocal coach. I would recommend Summer Watson to vocalists of any age and ability. Summer will foster your unique talents and give you the tools and training to become the best singer you can be.

Summer, well I like to call her Summer Luvin, is a very warm and kind lady and makes me comfortable and at ease at lessons. From before I started training with Summer I have changed so much, as she has given me confidence with Singing that no one gave me before! Her lovely way of teaching and how to apply useful techniques makes working on a song fun and exciting as songs I choose to learn always turn out better than expected. Her richness of professional experience shows in her creative eye. Summer tailors classes to match individuals and their needs and works to bring out each singers full potential! She is magic!

Dana is so professional! Her approach to the entertainment world; work hard, apply what she's learnt, always happy in her lesson. Even though the singing world is all very new to her she takes it all with in her stride. Well done for booking a role in a musical here in Los Angeles, USA

I started singing, dancing, and acting when I was three years old. It’s what I love. Growing up I performed in musicals, operas, and in choruses. I continued to sing all though college, and graduate school. Then after a few years performing professionally I hit some roadblocks that caused me to stop singing. I continued to act but did not sing for many, many years. To say I was nervous about getting back into it is an understatement. I was terrified! I didn’t know where to begin, or if I even should! Then I found Summer. Within minutes of meeting her I felt so comfortable, at ease, and safe I knew I had made the right choice. I’ve had many good teachers in my life, but Summer is the most intuitive and adaptable I’ve ever had. She is gifted in figuring out what kind of learner you are and then teaching to your specific needs. She shows you how to find YOUR sound, YOUR voice. She is amazingly focused and patient, coming up with ten different ways to teach something if need be until I have that “aha!” moment. Her skill and knowledge of vocal technique and different music styles is incredible and she shifts effortlessly between them. Want to do opera one week, then pop, then jazz, then musical theater? No problem! Summer has brought the joy of singing back in my life, and raised my confidence level as an actor. She epitomizes professionalism while being totally approachable and having a big heart. I seriously cannot recommend her highly enough. Weather you are a professional or just thinking what the heck I’ll try singing, do yourself a favor and go see Summer!
