Why We Will Keep Producing the Best Singers in the World
Singing has always been more than simply doing scales. It’s about finding and harnessing the “inner singer.” It’s about breaking the box of limitation and fear, allowing the giant in you to emerge. This has always been our focus—“the journey from the singer to the artist.”
The inner singer is the key to finding your own sound, brand, and identity. Many singers remain singers and never evolve into artists. This difference in our coaching approach is why we have produced star after star for decades. We build unique artists with their own sound and brand.
The heart is the essence of who we are, holding the blueprint of our gifts, talents, and greatness. Sadly, the negative world we live in often causes us to close off our hearts, emotions, and creativity. But at “Singing the Art of the Heart,” we work on the inner singer, helping them develop their craft, technique, and artistry. As this release happens, the singer explodes technically while building their identity, brand, and trademarks.
This is our work, and this is why singing is the “art of the heart”—releasing the greatness and potential in every human being. We will continue to produce some of the best voices and artists in the world.
