Diana Drew first stepped out on stage singing and playing the guitar at age seven. She was trained vocally by her father, a professional opera singer with the New York City Centre Opera Co. At eleven years of age, three record companies were knocking on her door, but were declined in favour of a 'normal' childhood.
Diana is a one-of-a-kind vocal teacher with a warm and encouraging style of teaching. Her extensive experience and expertise and incredibly attuned ear make her uniquely qualified to help each and every student with whatever issue they may have, and to nuture their talent to the fullest. Not just a vocal coach, she teaches all aspects - mic and recording technique as well as stage presence, etc. Diana also has a professional grade recording studio on-site for students use during their lessons.Read more
