About Marlon

Since birth, I have been singing and making up songs. Growing up, I learned piano, saxophone, violin, and different forms of choral singing. In college, I studied classical vocal performance, musical theater, a cappella singing, and improv singing. Then, I was a professional actor for 3 years, and put that aside to learn how to become a church musician. For the next 11 years, I learned guitar and perfected my voice and piano skillsets. As a church musician, one of my responsibilities was to recruit and train other musicians, and I fell in love with teaching as much as performing. If you are serious about owning your craft. I am the teacher for you.

About the lesson

Ownership Technique

Voice - From breathing from your diaphragm to the tension in the corners of your lips, you'll learn how to feel and use your entire vocal instrument for yourself. From there, you'll learn to sing your songs with confidence and perform.

Perfect! Marlon is an incredible teacher. He helped break down singing in a way i could understand. Instead of throwing a bunch of techniques at me right away he took what i knew and built off of it. He learned where i was coming from and I started singing better almost immediately because of that.

Perfect! Working with Marlon has been *so* inspiring! Instead of simply saying if something sounded good or bad, he made me realize that *I* need to be the one who is aware of my own instrument. Coaching me to be self-aware of how the parts of my body feel when singing using correct technique, I feel like I've improved significantly in a short period of time.

Perfect! Marlon is kind, funny, and a very good teacher. I originally went onto superprof for saxaphone lessons, but I found myself wanting to learn voice from Marlon just because... he is that cool.

Perfect! I hired Marlon to coach me on some sight reading and in one lesson I already feel more confident and supported with my breathing and tone. Marlon is warm, kind and instantly put me at ease even within the first lesson.

Perfect! Marlon is a wonderful teacher and even better human being! I'm a complete beginner to singing, and Marlon and I started at step 1 which is breathing. I appreciate his nonjudgmental and sensorial approach to learning. We've started learning and incorporating other techniques, and I feel very confident working with him for many more sessions to come! And also the man can sing! Book him!

Perfect! Marlon is hands down the best vocal coach I’ve ever had. I struggled for a long time to find someone who truly understood my voice—especially with the different tones and textures I naturally carry. Marlon not only gets it, he’s empowered me to embrace every part of my voice and use it with intention.

He meets you where you are and tailors his coaching to your goals—whether that’s technical precision, singing your favorite songs with more confidence, or even beginning to compose your own music. His approach is both practical and transformative. I’ve grown so much in a short time, not just vocally but also in how I think about myself as an artist.

All you have to do is show up and practice. I’m so grateful for his coaching and excited to keep growing with him.

Marlon is a fantastic human! He has been an encouraging and foundational force in my life. I have know Marlon for almost 10 years. We met through the church that we both attended which he was the worship pastor at. Marlon took me from being a scare guitar player who never played in front of people to an artist who plays on stage and records in studio. He helped grow my confidence by stretching my comfort zone and staying with me when things didn't go quite to plan. We started off recording on an old laptop in his apartment to record in a real studio with a professional sound engineer. He was with me every step of the way teaching me and supporting me. His gifts as a teacher and communicator have helped me grow into the musician and person I am today. I will always be grateful to him for his mentorship and friendship.

Marlon is a great teacher! He allows his student to learn and not be afraid to make the mistakes. Through his faith, he is able to connect with audiences of all ages who are willing to learn. Because of this, I was able to learn from Marlon, not only, how to play the piano, but also how to play guitar. I thank him all the time for our time together, and would recommend him to all.

I provide lesson notes after EVERY lesson and videos when necessary so you know exactly what to practice on your own. Every student has their own goals/style, and I meet you where they're at. This is NOT on size fits all, however, learning the foundations of your instrument will allow you to create the style you're looking for. I help you think through and feel how to use your instrument just like I did it for myself, and I am still performing regularly.

My students have written their own music, learned a second or third instrument with me, performed live, and recorded in studios once we started working together.

When did you first develop a passion for music and your favorite instrument?
I have been singing since I came out the womb and haven't stopped! My grandfather and mother have released albums, and my mom would force us to sing harmonies when she drove us places. Singing in choirs, ensembles, bands, and musical theatre demanded that I continued to train my voice and ear to a professional level. Even as I added guitar and piano to my current musical talents, it was so I could keep singing and become songwriter. I have been able to release two albums as lead songwriter and vocalist!
Is there a particular type of music or artist that you listen to on a loop without it driving you crazy?
Ooo ...for genres, musical theatre and old school gospel. I will listen to any song on loop with deep lyrics and storytelling that makes me sing or dance.
Explain to us the most difficult or riveting course you could personally give to a student of music.
Voice: So, I always have to tell my students that it's the weirdest thing I have to teach about singing, but it's the way that makes the most sense to people and is the most effective. To train their body to push from it's diaphragm, I have them sit down and push like they're doing a #2 on the toilet. This shifts them from pushing from their throat so their vocal chords can just focus on making the note.
What do you think is the most complicated instrument to master and why?
Violin...smh. I started playing at 11 and have quit twice. There are no frets. Plus, if you're technique is poor, you sound awful...and there is little wiggle room between bad and awful. I loved it for a good while but playing it in the recording studio broke me.
What are your keys to success?
Respect the talent that you're given, and ask yourself, "WHY AM I LEARNING THIS INSTRUMENT?" Don't waste your time if you don't have a goal or a purpose. Be ready to start practicing at least 15 minutes a day to get your body acclimated to your new skill set.
Name three musicians you dream of meeting in your favourite bar in the early hours of the morning. Explain why.
Tina Turner- she doesn't have the prettiest voice, but it's raw! She sings EVERY LYRIC with an intense conviction.

Fred Hammond- prolific songwriter with no fear to challenge his style or genre. He has dynamic voice and storytelling range to capture the human experience.

Lin Manuel Miranda- A true story teller using a myriad of music styles with no bounds of where his music can take him. Writing, performing, producing, discovering, and taking risks in the world he loves. He also has a ton of fun during the whole creative process.
Provide a valuable anecdote related to music or your days at music school.
Every music adventure will train you for the next. Embrace that special time to make mistakes.

Do your best to join a improv troop. It will train for every life situation where you have to speak with confidence but have no idea what's going on. Try to become a improv musician.
What are the little touches that make you a Superprof in music?
1) It brings me great joy revealing and affirming every small skill set a musician has so they know how gifted they are.

2) I love meeting a musician exactly where they're at.

3) I am very intense and silly.
