Ande Estrella Music LLC
About
Hello and nice to meet you!
My name is Ande—named after the mountains.
I am a lifelong singer, professional performer, and passionate educator with a profound love for music and storytelling. I come from a background of intensive vocal training and full-time performance work in jazz, musical theatre, pop, rock, folk, opera, and classical styles. As a young actor, I led productions such as Evita (Eva Perón), Legally Blonde (Elle Woods), Joseph…Dreamcoat (Narrator), Bright Star (Alice Murphy), and most recently The Last Five Years (Cathy). I’m a three-time National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS) award winner in musical theatre, classical, and contemporary commercial music, and a Rita Moreno Award nominee for Best Actress in 2019.
In addition to my work as a performer and educator, I’m currently studying at Berklee College of Music, working toward my Bachelor’s in Music Business with a focus on voice and songwriting. My education continues to shape and inform the way I teach and create, blending contemporary techniques with a deep respect for tradition.
For the past five years, I’ve had the privilege of teaching voice to students of all ages and experience levels. My goal is to create a safe, affirming, and encouraging space where singers can freely explore their sound and take creative risks. Singing is one of the most vulnerable instruments—your body is your instrument—which is why I focus not only on healthy vocal technique, but also on emotional connection, confidence, and self-expression. I believe the learning process should feel both challenging and enormously gratifying.
In addition to voice, I offer lessons in songwriting, acting, guitar, piano, violin, and music theory. As a working independent artist with music streaming on all platforms, I especially love guiding students through the songwriting process—helping them write for their own voices and tell their own stories.
Whether you’re just beginning your journey or preparing for the next big step, I’m here to support you every half step of the way.
