Cassie has a sunny, enthusiastic personality – she loves teaching voice students of all ages. Cassie’s stylistic specialities are R&B, Pop, Rock and Gospel — she has a flair for taking a Pop song and giving it an R&B edge.

Cassie grew up in Massachusetts, and began performing at the age of eight. She studied Jazz at the New England Conservatory, and graduated from Boston’s Berklee College of Music. Cassie brings a lot of real-world experience to the table, as a bandleader, songwriter, touring musician, and studio singer. Her favorite artists include, Mariah Carey, Sara Bareilles, Beyonce, Stevie Wonder, and the queen of soul, Aretha Franklin.

*If you’d like to get on Cassie’s good side, word on the street is that she especially appreciates pistachio flavored confectioneries from Yogurtland. . .

What Red Pelican Music students are saying about voice/singing lessons with Cassie:

My experience with red Pelican has been absolutely wonderful. The interactions with the office are very easy, they answer quickly on the phone or by e-mail. I was recommended one teacher, Cassie, based on location and my son’s needs. I couldn’t be happier. Cassie has been a great teacher. She has really connected with my son with a playful attitude but she’s been able to introduce more discipline and focus. He’s improving, happy to go and happy to practice. Two thumbs up!

*Some fun Anthony trivia: He will always order a burger and fries over anything else, no matter how fancy the alternative

What are people saying about lessons with Anthony:

“It is my pleasure to recommend Anthony. He has taught my two sons, ages 8 and 6, on a weekly basis. His style is fun and easy. He is engaging, challenging and knowledgeable. The boys have truly looked forward to their lessons which, given their ages, says a great deal. Anthony plays the piano for the boys who get to hear many different styles, sing with him, and explore their own improvisational pieces. He utilizes both traditional/classic approaches as well as a more playful approach, allowing them to choose songs they want to learn.”
