Professional coaching and expert interviews for singers and speakers who want to grow their skills and careers. Host Judy Rodman has 5 decades of success in the music and voice industry.
In this episode, you'll get to know Preston James, rising star, southern country rocker, gifted singer, songwriter and guitarist on the precipice of the big time. I became his vocal coach when he was 15 years old getting ready for an American Idol audition. He went on to reach the national TV levels of both A.M. and The Voice. The first time he opened for someone at the Grand Ole Opry as a relatively unknown teenager, he received several standing ovations. Now at the ripe old age of 25 he's a mesmerizing performer and songwriter signed to Warner Chappell with a trove of brilliant original material to record. Listen up as he shares his stories pursuing life, love, and making music. Easy to love, stay tuned for the life-changing update on him at the end of the interview.
