Heather Baker

Heather BakerHeather’s singing career started from the early age of 12 when she performed alongside Darren Day and Philip Schofield in ‘Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dream coat’ at the Bristol hippodrome. From there she never looked back.

“I spent most of my childhood going to singing teachers that took my money but didn’t deliver the results I should have had. I learnt plenty of songs but never realised the potential damage I was doing to my voice. As a child in particular you don’t realise that a teacher might not be doing you any good. When I was introduced to SLS it was like someone had finally turned on the light! I kept questioning- why has no one told me this before?”

Heather began teaching in 2001 and has built up an impressive clientele list since then. Her private clients include gigging musicians, songwriters, television personalities, journalists, signed artists, MOBO Award and Mercury Award nominees, Malta Music Award winners and a vast selection of amateur singers. She has been consulted for nation wide music industry books and local news articles; she has been contacted by performing arts institutes as far away as Malta, and by singing teachers all across the UK, She has been a guest lecturer at institutes such as The University of Lancashire and Lymm High School Sixth Form College. She is currently the Education Advisory Group Manager for the UK and Europe, looking after and aiding the learning of Speech Level Singing’s increasing number of certified and trainee teachers in the North West. Last summer Heather was also seen teaching at the legendary Seth Riggs Summer vocal Programme in LA.
