Welcome to BugByte Studios
BugByte Studios is an award-winning music coaching studio built on a hive model — led by our QueenBee (founder Francesca) and supported by a team of NurseBees: experienced specialists who each offer a unique lens on artistry.
We occasionally rotate teachers and hold monthly workshops, giving students the chance to work with more than one mentor and learn from multiple viewpoints.
Our team includes working musicians based in San Diego, Nashville, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, NYC, and beyond — giving students access to real-world perspectives from across the music industry.
More Than Lessons — A Strategic System for Growth
Some of us focus on technique. Others on songwriting, production, mindset, or performance. Together, we help students craft their own flight path — with guidance that’s strategic, creative, and deeply human.
At BugByte, we believe that the fastest growth happens when artists learn from through multiple lenses — and supported by a team that works together to bring out their best.

Why We’re Different
At BugByte, we don’t teach from a template.
We coach the whole artist — creatively, technically, and strategically — with a support system built to flex around your goals.
Our students work with multiple mentors, build their own flight path, and learn through real-world experience — from voice training and songwriting to self-accompaniment and music production.
Whether you want to perform live, release original music, or just feel confident in your voice, we help you grow with clarity, craft, and purpose.

Our Reviews
What our students say is what matters most.
After trying several YouTube videos & free Udemy courses, I realized that I needed a professional in my journey!
I enlisted BugByte Studios recently and it was such a great decision! I have an awesome teacher! She is very patient and answered all my burning questions. She gave me such great analogies & helped to shift my perception from “practice” to “play”
I highly recommend! They rock…literally

I came to BugByte Studios because I wanted to learn more about music production. I have fallen in love. Mainly because Francesca and her teachers focus on getting you playing and really enjoying music for what it is! There are technical aspects which we get into but there is this overwhelming momentum on simplifying what’s important and exciting. Which makes me want to practice and learn even more! Within days I was able to actually feel and play piano. It’s been about 2 months now and I’ve progressed way beyond what I thought I could in this short time. Before BugByte I tried learning via youtube and its just too scattered. Its a breath of fresh air to have someone that cares about you, that creates structure and the gets you excited to learn!

They offer a gracious, positive approach, with strong encouragement that helps a student to feel safe. I have enjoyed every lesson that I’ve had! They are extremely patient and able to offer positive instruction to correct any unhealthy habits. I am excited and honored to have an opportunity to work with such experience. Wonderful!!! I would recommend them to anyone! Keep up the great work Francesca, you are loved by many.
