BROWSE MY COURSES
No matter where you're at in your musical journey, I offer several different online courses where I teach from my personal experience to help you level up in topics like Audio Recording & Production, Branding & Content Creation, Live Performance, and more!
Courses originally only offered through my Musician of All Trades online program are now individually available!
Audio Recording & Production Essentials
If you've ever been interested in the world of audio recording and production but had no idea where to begin, then my course is a great place to start! In this course you'll learn what gear you need and how to use it to record professional sounding music from your own home.
You'll also learn the basics of audio editing, mixing and mastering, my creative process and workflow for writing original music and arranging covers, and I'll walk you through my entire arrangement process from start to finish for a popular cover song from my YouTube channel.
You can learn at your own pace with lifetime access to 39 video lessons (over 5 hours of content) I work in Logic Pro X, but this course focuses on teaching concepts and techniques that can work within any DAW.

Branding & Content Creation for Musicians
Tired of hearing crickets instead of applause every time you release something new? Creating content beyond your music is a real challenge for so many musicians, but it's also our best tool for attracting and growing an audience of passionate supporters who truly connect with our music and brand. In order to create content that serves both your Ideal Audience and your own career goals (and doesn't drive you crazy constantly stressing out about what and where to post next) you need a system.
This course gives you the blueprint for creating intentional, goal-oriented content that fully represents your music and brand to attract and connect with the right audience - and teaches you how to avoid wasting time creating content that ultimately doesn't serve your goals.

Distributing Your Music
What's the best way to release your music into the wild after you've spent countless hours carefully tweaking every last track in your mix? This course shares my best tips and advice for how you can thoughtfully release your new music to the world based on my own experience having released 12 full-length albums (5 of which charted on the Billboard charts) and over 50 singles.
I'll take you behind the curtain of my own strategy for releasing music on Spotify, as well as how I was able to increase my number of supporters on Patreon by over 50% through a new album campaign. You'll also learn some basics from the world of copyright, music publishing & royalties to help get you started in the right direction.

Hi! I'm Taylor Davis
I’ve been a violinist for over 25 years and for over the past 10 years I’ve been building my skills and career as an independent musician.
Within that time I’ve grown an online audience of over 3 million people, released 12 full-length albums (5 of which charted on the Billboard Charts) and traveled the world touring my own live show, all without ever signing with a record label!
One of my greatest passions is helping other musicians learn and grow from my own knowledge and experiences through my online courses. I can't wait to help you on your own journey with music!
