“I’ve turned to Andrew at many points in my career because he understands that there is no ‘one size fits all’ vocal toolkit. I have so valued the immediacy of Andrew’s technique; he provides real, tactile exercises that I can do in mere minutes to prepare for my ‘game.’ In a single lesson, the additional tools and skills I walk away with are invaluable. Andrew creates one of the most efficient and yet extremely comfortable and trusting environments for a singer to explore and grow in. I cannot thank him enough.”

“Andrew is a vocal ninja and my savior! He understands the demands of the performer and also the connection between the body and voice. He’s helped me focus my sound and support in places within my range where I’ve had a constant struggle. He looks at how your body or your mind can be affecting the voice or holding you back. His studio almost feels like vocal pilates for the performer. It’s incredible!”

“There are some people who are born to be teachers. Andrew is one of those people. The lessons within this book are a revelation and are sure to leave an enormous and permanent mark on the entertainment industry. It has been a personal joy for me to watch Andrew go from affecting deep change in individuals to affecting masses. And while there is a tiny part of me that doesn’t wish to share Andrew – my secret weapon – with the world; the world will certainly be better for having read and put into practice the contents of this book.”

“When I work with Andrew, I know I am in the hands of a one-of-a-kind expert. His research and study have formed a specific and holistic approach to singing that is detailed and yet easily applied. He has found a recipe that connects the analytical with the physical, engaging the brain, the nervous system, and the whole body. I leave his studio with practical, innovative exercises that produce real results: even tone, greater vocal agility and ease, and a deepened connection to the material.”

“Andrew Byrne has been my vocal coach for over a decade. Andrew’s ability to pinpoint how to address a vocal challenge in a song, both physical and emotional, never ceases to amaze me. And his knowledge of the physiology of singing is unparalleled. He continues to add to his arsenal to help to bring the best sound quality out of his students. I am grateful and fortunate to be able to have sessions with Andrew to this day. You will greatly benefit from his expertise and care.”

“Andrew Byrne is my national treasure. He is, in my opinion, THE vocal wizard. His love of all things anatomical coupled with his unending knowledge of the voice makes him the most valuable tool a performer can have. His approach is unlike any other voice teacher I’ve ever experienced. If his superior skill isn’t enough, Andrew is one of the most supportive and thoughtful people on the planet, who goes out of his way to make sure that those he calls students are taken care of. It’s because of working with Andrew that I made it to my Broadway debut.”

“I’m an actor with no background in singing. Whenever I have a job that requires me to sing, I run to Andrew Byrne. Whether it’s contemporary pop songs or old standards from the 1930s, Andrew knows exactly how to get me there. He can work with a beginner like me as well as the most seasoned professional; his toolbox is infinite. Directors are always thrilled to have him, as he is extremely flexible and a creative problem solver. With hard work and Andrew’s expert guidance, I’ve been able to develop skills that give me the confidence to stand up and sing, which is no small feat.”

“I have been taking lessons with Andrew Byrne for almost a decade, and there is no one like him. He is the most specific, educated, and clear voice teacher I have ever worked with. An hour with him is like months of training with anyone else. My work on a song before and after seeing Andrew is like night and day. He has an incredible way of drawing out my most authentic vocal interpretation of a song. Not only has he taught me about myself as a singer, but he has also taught me so much about specific areas in my body to target with relaxation or strengthening. To me, he is an amalgamation of a physical therapist, life coach, and superb vocal teacher. I’ll never stop working with him!”

“Andrew Byrne is a voice magician. He is the most intelligent and inspiring voice teacher I have ever studied with. His approach through the physical body and nervous system has transformed the way I sing and was essential for the success of my last Broadway role. Any singer or teacher of any level would gain a great deal from reading this book!”

“Andrew’s expertise in human physiology and his attentiveness to the current industry landscape make him an invaluable member of my team. His approach of utilizing the full body as an instrument for singing has allowed my voice to feel free and healthy while maintaining strength and endurance. I leave every lesson feeling inspired and empowered.”

“Working with Andrew was one of the most creatively gratifying experiences of my career. With Andrew’s teaching method, my voice developed in ways I could not have imagined. His tools to pinpoint areas of physical and mental tension as they related to my vocal strength were nothing short of mind-blowing. Our work made me a healthier artist and reframed how I tackle vocal challenges.”

“Andrew Byrne has taught me how to reach a higher level of a true, conscious, and intelligent understanding of vocal technique. His knowledge of the nervous system and its kinesthetic response to the voice is mind-blowing. Singing is such a personal yet athletic art form, and Andrew teaches with such integrity and knowledge. He is a true voice builder, and I wish I met him earlier in my career.”

“Andrew is by far the best vocal teacher I’ve ever had. In October I had invasive vocal surgery, knowing four months later I was contracted to play the title role in a huge production. In this short amount of time, Andrew revolutionized my voice. I trained like an athlete, using his techniques three or four times a day, and I am now singing the way I did 20 years ago. My voice is never tired, hoarse, or raspy, and I am belting the way I did when I began my career on Broadway. Thank you, Andrew; you saved me, and I use your techniques every day!”

“The body of work and masterful teaching of Andrew Byrne provides a direct path to elite vocal training for today’s singer. Andrew does more than connect the dots between neuroscience and the voice/body relationship. He has married neuroscientific principles and vocal pedagogy to create a whole new paradigm for how we can both learn and teach vocal technique. He does all this using straightforward, accessible vocabulary and physical/vocal tasks that produce immediate results for the singer. Decades of experience lead me to enthusiastically endorse Andrew Byrne as one of the most important vocal pedagogues of our time.”
