About

Singing is a sacred, beautiful way to express ourselves! I love vocal coaching and offer private vocal & songwriting lessons, as well as workshops & in-studio vocal producing.

I am a full-time performing & session vocalist, and songwriter. I was featured on season 10 of American Idol and music has been my career since I was a kid. I started out doing musical theatre in NYC, originating the role of Anna in Spring Awakening at Lincoln Center. For more info, check out DevynRush.com.

I am also a certified yoga instructor. I love to teach yoga and also incorporate stretches & body awareness during voice lessons.

We all have a voice inside of us, and we are all dynamic & multi-dimensional! When I coach you, my aim is to bring out what's already inside of you by helping you build a strong foundation and understand placement.

I believe in making lessons affordable & accessible. My studio is located in Los Angeles. I also offer lessons via Skype.

Whatever genre, or genres, you feel called to sing, I want to help you effortlessly express yourself!

    Devyn is not only an amazing singer herself, but a super awesome vocal coach as well. Our daughter took right to her, and looks forward to her lesson every week. Devyn remembers every detail that they work on each week, and incorporates new techniques and vocal vocabulary every lesson. She teaches technical aspects of voice training in a fun, relaxed environment. My young daughter has already gained so much confidence in her voice and stage presence. I catch her practicing her warm up scales and learning new lyrics to songs every day. Our family highly recommends Miss Devyn.

    From our first class, Devyn made me feel comfortable and supported. She has great insight on musical theory, practice, and presence. I deeply appreciated the classes we had together as Devyn provided helpful techniques on how to strengthen my voice for musical theatre. I look forward to working with her again soon. I definitely recommend her to anyone wanting a great, supportive vocal teacher.

    Devyn is amazing to work with! She has a friendly and warm personality that makes you feel so comfortable and safe when singing your heart out. She is also very knowledgeable. I learn something new every lesson and the tips she has given me work so well to fix problem areas I have within songs and or with my voice. Im very happy to have her as a singing instructor!

    I Just finished my first month of vocal lessons with Devyn and she has been great to work with! Im a total beginner and Devyn is super patient, encouraging and has a very warm personality. She breaks things down for me and has really helped me understand pitch and tone, head voice vs. chest voice and always thoroughly answers my multitude of questions :) Im looking forward to continue working with Devyn.

    She is great. She is very patient. I think in every lesson I have had she makes it a point to highlight my strengths. Which only makes me want to do better. She explains things to me with vocabulary I understand. I am not a music major and am taking classes just for fun. So I am not well aware of much but she explains things to me clearly.

    I have worked with Devyn for about 4 years through virtual lessons and Ive never thought about having another teacher. Shes a vocal teacher, a coach, a music theory teacher she does it all! She starts out with technique the foundation. Devyn is always open to my ideas and my creativity throughout our sessions.

    Frequently asked questions

    I believe that vocal technique is compromised of 2 foundations: Breath & Placement. For our first lesson, we'll check out your pitch and range. Once I get to know your voice a little bit, we'll incorporate proper breathing technique and have fun exploring placement together. And we'll ALWAYS sing a song. It's important to me that you leave each lesson feeling better and more accomplished than you did before you walked in. We will always talk about YOU and your goals!

    My mom is a voice teacher in the Philadelphia area, so I started singing as soon as I could talk. I started out in musical theatre, which has helped me maintain proper vocal technique and health. I've explored & experimented with a mutitude of genres, so whatever it is that you love, I'm up for it! Specialties include: Musical Theatre, Pop, Jazz, Soul.

    I am also a certified yoga instructor (200-Hour YogaWorks Teacher Training 2011) and love to teach yoga as well as incorporate it in my voice lessons.

    My mom is a voice teacher in Philadelphia. For years, I've seen how fulfilling it is for her and how she has been able to help build her students' confidence and enhance their lives. I wanna be just like her :) I consider myself a Teacher to those who are just beginning to explore their voices, and a Coach to those who have vocal experience. 

    My students range from Beginner (like, first time opening their mouths to sing!) all the way to seasoned and on Broadway.

    My most favorite events of late have to do with the confidence I see manifesting in my students. I like to come from a mindset of playing to strengths. I'm big on "Name 3 things you loved about that and 1 thing you'd like to take a look at to improve." There is never any judgment in my lessons. We learn from a place of love and curiosity. I love when lessons are conversational and exploratory. After all, this is for YOU. And I am so happy to be on your journey with you :)

    I think it's very important to find someone who has *a heart of a teacher* There are a lot of people who sing professionally but might not actually know how to teach/coach.

    Think about what you're looking for. What's making you want to sing - Do you want to do it professionally? Perhaps you already are a professional vocalist and want to find a coach to help you expand and keep up your chops? Maybe you are simply looking for a fun way to express yourself? All of the above are welcome with me!
