If you're using your voice to further your career as a singer, performer, or keynote speaker, you know how vital it is to work from your best vocal capability. To BOOK that job; To CONNECT to new clients; to CREATE new business. You've got to be able to breathe properly, reach your full range of notes, have more stamina, relaxation, and more power for projection. I know that all too well, as I continue to be an active performer myself. By working with the same proprietary Controlled Relaxation t …

Love Classic Rock? Who doesn't? Still, Meetup didn't have much of a Classic Rock presence, that is until now! Enter Classic Rock, NYC! Do you hope you never hear N Sync's acapella version of, "More Than A Feeling?" Do you think of The Eagles as a band, not just a football team? Are you aware that Billy Idol wasn't the first one to do, "Mony Mony"? Did you know that vinyl can be used for something other than seat covers? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this group is for y …

This group was started to help create a single place to find House Concerts in the Philly area. Initially I'll post concerts onto the calendar as Notes (with a link to more information about the event), and if the House Concert host desires, you'll be able to RSVP right here from Meetup. My theory is that there are lots of people on Meetup who are looking for unique experiences, and I'd love to connect you all to the House Concert experience. What is a House Concert? A house concert is an even …

Singer-Songwriters who live, work or hang out on Long Island, and would like to share ideas about how they create...

Maybe you moved to New York to sing professionally, and somewhere along the way you forgot how to have fun. Maybe you sing strictly in the privacy of your own shower, and you'd like to find out how much fun it can be to sing in front of others. There aren't a lot of places where it's okay to sing just for fun! In our meetups, we gather in a rehearsal space in Manhattan with an accompanist, and we take turns getting up in front of each other and singing just for the joy of it.  Broadway, opera, p …

We sing and play together - ANY skill level, any sort of funny songs. Weird Al, Tom Lehrer, Allen Sherman, or more obscure stuff. I play guitar and bass, and sing - sometimes I write my own parody songs. Don't be shy, no one is judging you. Just come for some laughs!

This is a group devoted to constructively collaborating on songwriting and singing. The idea is to meet periodically to share songs that we've been working on. We'll eat and drink--potluck, although whoever hosts (me, for instance) might contribute something extra, like a big bowl of pasta or something like that--and we'll play songs for each other. We'll discuss each other's work, we'll talk about what works and what doesn't, and we'll give each other encouragement and advice where appropriate. …

This is a group focused on the business aspect of music. So many of us songwriters, beat-makers (songwriters), producers, artists, and musicians know very little about the business aspect of the industry. This group is focused on coming together to discuss the valuable information that we all need to, not only be aware of, but implement at an early stage in our careers. We will discuss copyrights, publishing, royalties, and various other aspects of the music industry.

We are made up of singer/songwriters and cover artists and those who simply appreciate acoustic music. We're about spontaneous collaborations between a mix of professional to newbie musicians with a passion for acoustic music and live performances that promote group dynamics, rich harmonies and lasting musical memories.
