About

I have been a vocal coach in the Mid South for over 40 years. Unlike many teaching voice today, I actually have a degree in voice. For 25 years, along with being a private vocal coach, I was also the choir director that, at the time, was the largest high school in Memphis. I have worked with literally thousands of voices from the very young, to what some would say, well seasoned. I work with people right where they are. By that, I mean that there is no standard someone has to reach in order to work with me. I listen to each individual voice, note areas that need more attention, and we go from there. Can I make everyone a solo singer? No. Run from anyone who says they can. What I can do is help most everyone sing better than they do now. But remember that the whole process depends on not just the level of instruction, but how hard the learner is committed to working, daily practice, and willingness to change incorrect singing habits. This whole venture is done together for your benefit. I have students, and former students, that are singing all around the world, on and off Broadway, Broadway touring companies, cruise ships, Las Vegas, theme parks all around the world, musical theater, on tour with celeberties, and recording artists. I also have clients who want to sound better singing the hymns at church, or to want to sound better in the shower. Whatever your goal might be, I would be honored to help you on your journey.

    Cindy Barrett was my vocal coach for 8 years. When I started at 12 years old I had some natural ability but no clue how to be a performer or use my voice properly. Over the course of my training Cindy took me from a young amateur singer to an award winning vocalist. I fully believe that she’s the hardest working vocal coach in Memphis. Without her I know that I would not be the person, performer and vocalist that I am today. The attention to detail that she puts into her student’s training is nothing short of incredible. I can’t recommend her enough.

    Absolutely changed how I performed, emoted and felt the music from my very first meeting with Cindy. She completely transformed me as a vocalist, recording artist and stage performer. I owe so much of my career highlights to Cindy! The amount of times I find myself quoting her while directing or coaching now is laughable! Cindy is amazing!!!!
