Episode 554 – Singing Secrets From a Hollywood Vocal Coach | Eric Vetro

In this week’s episode, I sit down with singing coach to the stars, Eric Vetro.

Eric has a client list that’s a “who’s who” of music celebrities, including Ariana Grande, Katy Perry, Rita Ora, John Legend, and Shawn Mendes, as well as the lead singers from bands like Haim, Weezer, Incubus and Muse. 

He’s also trained A-list actors for the movie musicals La La Land, Chicago, Judy, Mary Poppins Returns, Hairspray, Beauty and the Beast, Eurovision, In The Heights, Cinderella, and Wicked, among many others. 

Plus he’s worked with many Disney stars who went on to have great singing careers such as Vanessa Hudgens, Sabrina Carpenter, Ashley Tisdale, Olivia Holt, Laura Marano, and Dove Cameron.

In this episode, Eric and I spoke about his unique coaching style, how his background as a piano accompanist made him a better singing coach, how he gets a movie star ready to sing in a movie, why warming up your voice is so important, and so much more.
