Mike Bryant
Vocal Coach
A Note from Eric:
Chances are, if you’ve followed me on YouTube, you know Michael Bryant. He was one of my first students here in the DC area, and I knew from the start that he would do great things. What I love so much about Michael’s story is that it could be YOUR story. Michael came to me, never having given much thought to a professional career as a vocalist. But the passion was there; the drive was there. He worked hard, and I watched him grow from a student to an in-demand background vocalist, to one of my most trusted vocal coaches, and now recording an album alongside me as my group mate. What do I think of Michael Bryant as a vocal coach? He gets right to the nuts & bolts of the situation. Michael is a voice builder. You want a stronger voice, more range, more power? Michael can help you get that. And it takes all of 2 seconds to realize that this man practices what he preaches. I believe in his skills. Try him; he’ll make a believer out of you.

Leora Nosko
Vocal Coach

A Note from Eric:
I genuinely feel that I was fated to meet Leora Nosko. Yes, she is a beautifully gifted vocalist; but to come across a talented vocalist is not rare in my profession. What makes Leora extraordinary is that she is a talented vocalist who also happens to be exceptionally genuine, passionate, wise, and intuitive. She is not merely a singer or even just a voice teacher. Leora is an artist. She understands the bigger picture. I have every confidence in her teaching ability and technical knowledge. More than that, I know each of her students benefit from her remarkable life experience and her spirit.

Jared Latchford
Vocal Coach

A Note from Eric:
I’ve had the pleasure of being Jared Latchford’s vocal coach since the time he was a young teen. Even then, he displayed remarkable discipline and work ethic. Over time, I’ve watched him grown into a true vocalist. He’s held his own in the studio with Def Jam recording artists, blown away songwriters like Noah Silver, and even earned the respect of rising star producer Chris Barz (Wale’s “Don’t Hold Your Applause”). Jared is living proof that the handwork pays off; he knows this from experience, and I believe that to be a powerful attribute in a teacher. As a certified AApproach instructor, Jared encourages vocalists in our online Phase 1 and Phase 2 courses, guiding them in their path to vocal freedom. To put it plainly, “He really knows his stuff”. For all of these reasons, I’m so proud to have Jared Latchford as part of the AApproach team.
