What is a studio singer?

A Studio Singer is a professional vocalist who records songs or vocal parts in a studio setting for various projects, such as commercials, movies, TV shows, albums, and jingles. Unlike live performers, studio singers focus on delivering precise, high-quality vocal recordings that can be edited and mixed for the final production. They must be skilled in sight-reading, harmonizing, and adjusting their voice to fit different genres and styles. Strong vocal control, adaptability, and the ability to take direction quickly are essential for success in this role.

What is a typical workday like for a studio singer, and how do you collaborate with other professionals in the recording studio?

A typical workday for a studio singer often involves arriving at the recording studio, warming up vocally, and performing multiple takes of lead or background vocals based on producer and composer instruction. Studio singers frequently collaborate with sound engineers, producers, composers, and sometimes other vocalists to achieve the desired sound for commercials, albums, movie scores, or jingles. Pinpoint accuracy and the ability to quickly adjust to creative feedback are essential, as sessions can vary from tightly scripted to highly improvisational. Working hours may be irregular, depending on project needs and deadlines. Building strong working relationships and maintaining a professional attitude are key to being invited back for future sessions.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the studio singer position, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Studio Singer, you need exceptional vocal ability, strong sight-reading skills, and versatility across music genres, often supported by formal music training or professional experience. Familiarity with recording studio equipment, digital audio workstations (such as Pro Tools or Logic Pro), and proper microphone technique is highly beneficial. Reliability, quick adaptability, and effective communication help studio singers collaborate with producers, engineers, and other musicians efficiently. These abilities ensure that studio singers can deliver high-quality performances under tight deadlines and varied recording scenarios.

About the Role

Kenya Moses Voice Studio is hiring a Substitute Voice Teacher who will grow into a part-time role in our small studio, located in San Mateo, CA.

Key Responsibilities


  • Teach one-on-one voice lessons to students ages 10+ (primarily teens and adults) across multiple genres.
  • Deliver lessons in person at the studio (and/or online via Zoom when needed).
  • Plan each lesson around the individual student's goals - technique, repertoire, performance prep.

- Demonstrated ability to teach across multiple genres - classical/musical theater AND contemporary styles strongly preferred.

- Comfortable teaching students of all ages, with most of your week spent with teens and adults.

- Strong foundational knowledge of vocal anatomy, healthy technique across registers (chest mix/head), breath support, resonance, and repertoire-building.

- Reliable, professional communication style; organized with scheduling and notes.


Preferred:

- Degree in Vocal Performance, Music Education, or related field (or equivalent professional experience).

- Performance credits or active performing career.

- Experience teaching both in-person and online.

- Comfortable working independently, as this is a small studio.

Monday – Friday: Mornings / early afternoons / early evenings

Monday – Friday: Late afternoons / early evenings

Saturday: Mornings / afternoons


Exact recurring schedule will be set once you transition into the part-time role. Substitute shifts may be scheduled with as little as 24 hours' notice depending on coverage needs.


Compensation


  • $55–$65 per lesson, depending on experience and lesson length.
  • Paid per lesson taught; no minimum hour guarantee during the substitute phase.
  • Part-time role includes a recurring weekly schedule once established.
