Snippets from the reviews:
Layne's voice contains real confidence, as the rawness and realness of his vocals are easily heard throughout. By the coda, you'll be sitting in your seat singing along. Your ears will be thanking you for the experience.
“Take A Look” is a solid electro-pop song that is incredibly well produced. The lyrics are deep and meaningful, lending a sense of empowerment to the listener. There are many different electronica sounds that go into the melody, but they are layered perfectly into an immaculate wall of sound. The result is simply outstanding.

Testimonials

"Mike is an amazing vocal teacher. He's helped me to understand that my voice is an instrument and that it should be taken care of as such. My range has increased, as well as the control of my voice. I'm looking forward to seeing my future vocal progression under Mike's teaching. I can't wait!"
-Timorris (Everything Timorris)

"Michael is LA's best kept secret."
-Mother of Andy, student at Musician's Intitute

"I found Michael Layne online and I am so thrilled. His style of teaching is fun easy to learn and gets immediate results! He really knows what he is doing and truly knows how to teach one to sing. I've taken numerous lessons prior to him that seemed to progress so slowly and with such complicated weird techniques. Michael listened to my singing and was able to immediately identify and go to work on helping me to correct the things I was doing incorrectly! It's been easy and fun!!! My producer (working on EP of 6 original songs) has noticed a 10-15% improvement in my singing/recording with each lesson. Bottom line -- Michael delivers RESULTS!!!!"
-Debbie (Disney)

"Mike has done an amazing job with my voice. If he had expanded my range and helped me develop the belting power I have now, and left it at that, I could easily tell you that he is a great voice teacher. But my results with Mike have so greatly exceeded any expectations I could have had that I find it difficult to articulate just how rare and gifted a voice teacher he is. I would compare him to a force of nature like Sanford Meisner, in that Mike is able to transform talent by using technique to steer his students toward their authentic selves -- Mike has helped me find my voice. He has also cured me, quite rapidly, of some fairly common bad vocal habits. Mike is a spectacular voice teacher. I cannot recommend him highly enough."
