There is no
voice like yours.
You can sing and speak with freedom, confidence, beauty, and power. Finding joy in your voice is your birthright, and I am passionate about sharing with you the tools and techniques that empower you to claim it.
Who I Am
Hello! I’m Nevada Jones. I’m a voice teacher, vocal performance coach, and composer. Over the past fifteen years, I have had the opportunity to work with hundreds of singers, speakers, and performers, aged 15 to 85, sopranos to basses, at all levels of experience, and in many different genres (classical, singer-songwriter, jazz, R&B, musicals, world, rock, among others). I am a certified Transformational Voice® teacher and have an additional background of study in acting and Linklater Voice® technique. I’m also a composer of vocal and instrumental music. You can read more about me here.
Whether you’re a total beginner or a very experienced singer, I can help you bring the best out of your own unique, free, and beautiful voice. You’ll learn and refine technique, develop your artistry, and deliver your authentic self into any songs you wish to sing — in any style. And if you’ve run into vocal trouble, I can help you retool your technique safely. So if singing ever hurts or you're getting hoarse, we need to talk.
How do you want to be heard?
Singing
Your speaking voice has the power to transform your professional and personal relationships. So if you cringe at the sound of your own voice in a recording, or if you’re just feeling unheard, I can relate! And I can help.
You’ll learn how to pinpoint and transcend unhelpful vocal habits and deliver compelling tone quality and projection that is effortless, engaging, and sustainable; whether you’re on a stage, in a classroom, in a boardroom, …or just trying to get your kid to clean their room!
Speaking
My Promise To You
I always strive to create a positive, encouraging, and safe environment for you to explore your voice with curiosity, creativity, and freedom. I believe that bringing a sense of playfulness into your vocal practice is essential to mastery.
During your sessions, I will engage you in vocal and body warm-ups, vocal exercises to work through your unique vocal challenges, and individually-tailored approaches to working on your songs or speeches.
I aim to challenge you and invite you to the outer boundaries of your abilities — growth as an artist only comes when you press on those edges.
Each sesson concludes with a recap, space for any questions, and ideas for productive practice for the days ahead.
Tell me about yourself! I can’t wait to hear about what you want to accomplish with your voice.
Your voice is a projection of your identity into the world. It is inherently beautiful. I’m just here to help you remove the obstacles in its way.
“It has been such a fun and fascinating journey exploring my voice with Nevada as my guide. I began lessons with no idea what I was capable of, but with Nevada's encouragement and insightful coaching, I quickly developed a comfortable and joyful connection with my voice.”
– Cyndy K.
"I always thought I couldn't sing--so working with Nevada has given me what I never expected: the confidence, as well as the ability, to join a chorus, sing duets, and even solo. He is a supportive and knowledgeable teacher, and fun to work with.”
– Lois L.
“Since he is a trained actor, he shared techniques of learning lyrics, which I found invaluable. He teaches music theory, and as a pianist, I appreciate learning theory to incorporate into my other musical interests. Nevada is very supportive, he listens and feels with compassion.”
– Lori M.
