Chris McCall is an award winning singer, songwriter, and vocal coach. She was a six time winner on Star Search and recipient of Motor City Music Award, Talent Deserving Wider Recognition for her work as front person and songwriter in the band Jugglers and Thieves. She has continued to write, produce and perform her own original music, Jazz standards, Celtic Music and several CDs of spiritual music for meditation. She is also the voice on many long running TV and radio commercial spots.
Chris works with every level of singer from the beginner to contestants on American Idol and The Voice to the seasoned professional. Her goal is to help each student realize the fullness of their expression whether they are preparing for an audition, writing their own music or honoring a deep longing to feel the joy of song in their own body.
Each lesson is individualized to support the singer and help them expand their range. Lessons incorporate classical voice technique as well as information gained from more than twenty years of professional singing in Rock, Jazz, R and B, Country and Spiritual music. Drawing on the practical experience of professional singing and body centered meditation techniques, Chris helps students refine their own instruments, develop stage presence and enhance their ability to connect with their audience.
The voice is posited in two ways in her work, as the object to be explored and shaped and a tool by which to explore your own body and mind. Working with the voice in this way has the effect of pain relief, energizing, calming, relieving fear and facilitates an awareness of connection with everything in life.
“I respect each students voice as the means by which their soul expresses itself and connects with others in this life. I know the voice to be a powerful instrument for healing both emotional and physical difficulties. I hope that through this work my students will realize all of their goals and discover the natural vibratory radiance in their own bodies.”
