About JAMES
JAMES V is a Vancouver-based independent pop-EDM artist, international vocal coach and founder of Vocal Resony (concealed information)
With 7+ years of performance experience and 4+ years coaching singers worldwide, James brings real-world knowledge to his holistic approach to building both the voice and the artist.
Finding purpose in life through singing and falling in love with music back in 2018, James embarked on his music journey as an aspiring musician and started working on his voice with Classical Trained Vocal Coach Luis Alu in Madrid, where he spent a year developing his skills and performing at shows across Spain.
Eager to expand his career, James moved to Canada the following year to explore new opportunities. In 2020, James started working closely with Nashville-based Brett Manning's Associate, Jason Catron, through whom he discovered his unique tone, built great confidence and versatility in his singing voice, as well as discovered the most well-known techniques heard in contemporary music nowadays on the radio.
After 4 years of dedicated mentorship, James mastered the art
of singing and vocal coaching, as well as the fundamentals techniques of the voice, by completing his Vocal Coach Certification and becaming an associate at Vocal Lab Collective.
While coaching artists across Canada, the U.S., and beyond through
Vocal Lab, James decided to launch his own coaching business, Vocal Resony, in 2024
James found his calling through singing and is deeply passionate
about helping others. He believes in uncovering the strengths,
value, and authenticity of your unique singing voice, fostering a
strong inner connection that allows you to bring emotions to life
through your music.

I’m excited to keep working with him and push him further in his career :)JAMES's response :
Perfect! Very knowledgeable and friendly! He was so excited for me when I hit notes I didn't even know I could hit!
- My first lesson with Piers went amazing! Piers was lacking a bit of confidence and felt limited vocally vocal range wise because he struggled with breath support while singing for long at his band rehearsals.JAMES's response :
We started the warmup and I encouraged Piers to change his posture to feel a bit more grounded and support his tone more consistently. This way he would gain more confidence when doing the exercises.
And turns out that worked like magic! We went from the bottom to the top of his range proving that old belief wrong that he couldn't hit those high notes.
It was super fun to help him on this and I'm super excited to work with his band in the future :)
Perfect! Very patient and good at explaining what to do and always keeping it fun
- First lesson with Ace was super fun!JAMES's response :
After completing a few exercises we really managed to find an easy way to get her to project her voice fully and learn how to sing without constantly using air.
She has a very sweet tone and I’m excited to make progress with her!
Excellent! James is really fun and gives practical advice on techniques to improve singing. I fixed some things that I didn't know I was doing wrong right at the first class. He also explained how his lessons work and set clear goals for us to work together to achieve.
- Gabriel was very easy to work with in the first lesson. He already had some previous singing experience so it was easy to identify what he had more ease at and what he found more problematic in singing.JAMES's response :
After doing some warmup exercises and getting to know his voice we managed to get past the points where his tone was disconnected with no strain and learn the easy way to do it following a few examples.
Gabriel has a very unique voice and I'm excited to work with him in the future!
Perfect! He is patient and knowledgble to teach my 10 years daugter. He is very nice and responsible.
- The first lesson with Yanfei was very straight forward.JAMES's response :
Her daughter Wei Wei has an amazing music ear and theory foundation so that made everything go way smoother.

She’s very willing to learn and I definitely see a lot potential in her!
Perfect! Amazing teacher! James really takes the time to find the best way to teach you.
I personally almost didn’t had experience in professional singing and I felt really comfortable with James :)Perfect! James is an excellent teacher.
He takes the time necessary to build confidence and understand the objectives set.
The learning methodology is based on the practice of exercises which are systematically accompanied by theoretical input, to give meaning. I can only recommend giving it a try.- The first lesson with Pierre went great!JAMES's response :
At first he was a bit doubtful about if he was doing the vocal exercises right and whether he was tuning correctly.
But as soon we did a couple warm-up exercises, he gained confidence, started projecting his tone and started tuning with a lot of ease.
He’s got potential for singing and I’m sure we’re gonna make a lot of progress if we keep going in this direction.

Perfect! Such a great lesson and more to come! James was very patient and offered me various methods and tools to help me understand and hit the notes. He’s passionate about music and I highly recommend him as a teacher
- The first lesson went great! At first, Vanessa was very shy with her projection because she was scared to do things 'wrong'. But after a few exercises and giving her a few tips she really started projecting her tone and she gained so much confidence after that :)JAMES's response :
She has a beautiful timbre and I really like how much she’s willing to learn.
I’m excited to keep going with the lessons

I've been taking singing classes with Jaime for half a year. Jaime is super professional, patient and passionate about his role as a vocal tutor. He precisely spotted my weakness and helped me reach to my dream pitch - a stable male high C. Now I am confident to single songs in any style/range and I feel my love for singing is greatly expanded by working with Jaime together. It is such a rewarding journey. I would recommend Jaime to anyone who is interested in singing and wants to challenge oneself to be a decent singer!
Since I started the singing lessons with James it's been such a fun and exciting journey. In the past 6 months I've got to know my voice a lot better!
At first I had the tendency to push when singing high and I ended up tiring out my voice. James helped me avoid and be aware of my restraints when singing high notes. He's also given me very good tips to assure I have good diaphragm support while still being relaxed.
He's such a fun teacher and really transmits you that passion for singing that makes the lesson super fun! Definitely recommend taking lessons from him if you would like to learn how to sing.James is very passionate about singing and teaching, He is patient and knowledgeable with singing techniques. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for improve their singing skills.
I started taking singing lessons with James a couple months ago and I’m very happy with all the progress made so far.
His classes are very practical starting with some vocal warmup exercises to awaken the voice and connect all vocal registers (chest voice, mix and head voice/falsetto) and then we work on a song to practiceJames is a great vocal instructor! Ever since I started taking lessons with him he's been extremely patient with me!
Also, he's given me nice tips according to my voice type so I could sing in a healthier way, and honestly, I've improved so much in the last couple months️
The warmup exercises in the class are really fun and I love that he lets me choose my own song to practice my technique :)View more recommendations
