Shea is amazing her knowledge of anatomy and how to apply vocal concepts is outstanding. She really is helping me figure out how to make my voice work for me. Would strongly recommend her to anyone interested in vocal lessons.

Shea was absolutely the amazing, her work was perfect and we were absolutely honored to walk down the aisle to her music. She even worked hard to get our super strict venue to approve a sound system. She is absolutely lovely!

Shea was amazing. She was great to deal with straight from the beginning and responded to all my emails and questions. She played the piano and sang so well and my guests did not want her to leave. We all loved her energy from the beginning to the end. We all love the tone of her voice there was so much soul and richness to her. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you Shea you make me want you throw another party soon so I can hire you!!

I've been working with Shea for almost a month now and in such a short amount of time, I only have positive words to describe her as a vocal coach. Not only does she have a beautiful singing voice herself, she also has excellent teaching skills. We do our lessons via FaceTime due our distant locations, but it genuinely feels as if we're in the same room with never any connection issues. In her lessons, she gives great, honest feedback, and studies your performance. She demonstrates exercises herself and then she monitors your performance of each exercises giving you advice and the tools to better develop yourself. The biggest tool being homework. She communicates clearly, confidently, and you can tell she's an expert in the singing craft. I was hesitant to work with her at first because i'm a very shy guy and i'm self-conscious about singing in-front of others. However, I genuinely look forward to each session now based on how comfortable she makes me feel. She creates a warm learning environment and even though its been a short amount of time, you can slowly feel yourself progressing. At this point, if you're new and want to learn singing from someone, I would highly recommend Shea to coach you. "Shea is the way." Trademark that. Also no photo's to upload because i'm not creepily screen shotting our sessions.

We hosted a House Concert featuring Shea. She was truly exceptional and the audience loved the concert! She is super reliable and has also brings her own sound system. Speaking of sound system, many people commented on how great the audio quality was. Overall, I could not be happier and I am so glad we were able to organize an event with her.

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  I will always try to be as reasonable as possible with travel expenses kept in mind. I tend to require a standard %50 deposit down to lock in the date and time for each desired event.

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  When working with a new customer I like to get an idea of the type of event they are putting together. Moving forward we then discuss any particular songs, artists, styles, or genres they would like for their event in order to make it the best fit possible.

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I have over 18 years of singing experience, 8 of which have been professionally. I have about 5 years + of professional piano experience.
