Meet Angel Rose (A star name for a star singer might we add!) 😇🌟

Angel came to us from a musical theatre background - a strong range and crystal-clear diction. The kind of foundation every singer benefits from. But when you train in musical theatre for a long time, singing can become about precision and delivering a role. And sometimes, in that process, a singer’s own tone, raw emotion and individuality can get a little lost.

With Angel, we’re not rebuilding, we’re rediscovering. Stripping things back. Letting go of “perfect” delivery. Creating space for her natural tone, her gorgeous vibrato, and that alternative edge that makes her unique!

Watching her confidence come back as she returns to her authentic self has been magic! ✨🎤🎵

Our vocal student Shay has only gone and landed the lead role as Charlie in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory at the Regent Theatre!!! 🍫

When Shay first came to us with his audition song, we focused on refining pitch accuracy in the extreme upper register, developing a strong, supported belt, and reducing reliance on head voice. Building the vocal strength, control, and stamina needed for this role while maintaining healthy technique has been key and we’re so excited to continue supporting Shay through rehearsals in delivering strong musical theatre technique 🎵🎤

A big thank you to our Vocal Tutor Katie for her support with Shay’s audition tape. This casting speaks volumes, with West End star Joel Montague on the audition panel, renowned for his powerhouse vocals and best known for playing King George III in Hamilton, Dewey Finn in School of Rock, and Buddy in Elf the Musical!

Catch Shay on:
📅 Tues 23 June – 7pm
📅 Thurs 25 June – 7pm
📅 and Sat 27 June – 2pm

You got the golden ticket, Shay! 🎫 ✨

Huge congratulations to all of our students who performed at tonight’s Spring Showcase! 🎤🎵

Each year we host four seasonal showcases, giving more than 20 students the opportunity to perform live for their friends and family and share what they’ve been working on in their lessons. It’s a chance for them to step onto the stage, experience a real audience, and grow as performers.

Tonight we saw so much bravery, confidence, and genuine stage presence. Every performance showed not only strong vocal technique and control, but also the dedication our students put into their practice both inside and outside their lessons!

We’re incredibly proud of each and every performer, and of the fantastic work our vocal tutors continue to do in nurturing every student as an individual artist! 🎤🎵

And then there were… 4! ✨New Tutor Alert! 🎤

We are so pleased to welcome Izzy to The Song Loft!🎵

Izzy completed her Level 3 Extended Diploma in Musical Theatre at the prestigious Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts (LIPA), an internationally respected institution founded by Paul McCartney. Known for its industry-led, performance-focused training and highly competitive audition process, LIPA gave Izzy a strong grounding in professional rehearsal discipline and performance standards.

She is currently completing her BA (Hons) in Performing Arts at Performers College Manchester and brings a wide range of professional performance experience into her teaching. Her credits include Shrek the Musical, The Final Curtain – Heroes vs Villains, and becoming a finalist in West End Calling 🏆

Izzy is a strong musical theatre vocalist with an impressive vocal range and power. As a former student of The Song Loft herself, she has learned first-hand from our tutors, and now she’s ready to pass that experience directly on to the next generation of performers!

Izzy starts tomorrow and will be our Under 16’s Vocal Tutor on Saturdays 🎤

Saturdays have been like gold dust for years… so don’t wait! Hit the link in our bio to check availability before spaces disappear! 🎵✨

Imagine being 12 and having this tone! 🎵🎤

You might expect to hear a voice like this from a young Adele, but this is our wonderful student Alanna, who only began her journey with The Song Loft last year.

Under the guidance of her teacher Bex, she’s learning how to truly harness her voice - developing control, building confident stage presence, and shaping the unique tone she’s been so naturally blessed with! Alanna already shows a beautifully soulful quality to her singing, drawing on expressive phrasing often heard in blues and soul music.

Big things are ahead for Alanna! She grabs every opportunity to perform and channels the challenges she’s faced into singing with remarkable emotion for someone so young. We are incredibly proud of her and can’t wait to see where her journey takes her! 🎵🎤

We are loving having Sienna back at The Song Loft for audition preparation! 🎤🎵

Sienna will be auditioning for the Musical Theatre BA (Hons) at Urdang Academy and the Vocals course at ACM Music College, both in London. Sienna first trained with us two years ago while preparing for her audition for where she was successfully offered a place on their highly competitive Performing Arts course.

We are so excited to be supporting her again as she works towards these prestigious conservatoire auditions! We have been focusing on developing her vocal technique with greater strength, precision, and control through the upper register, alongside expressive facial connection and confident physical storytelling to ensure she delivers her best performance 🎭

New tutor alert! We are are thrilled to welcome (another) Lauren to the team (that’s going to get confusing!) 🎵🎤

Lauren is the 4th vocal tutor that will operate at The Song Loft in our brand new studio in the same building. This will open up more availability for those that previously couldn’t get in on Tuesday and Thursdays after school and work between 5pm and 9pm.

Lauren is a highly trained performer and teacher with a strong academic and professional background in acting, singing, and musical theatre. She trained with the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA), achieving grades in Musical Theatre, Speaking Verse and Prose and Acting, before going on to graduate with a First Class BA (Hons) in Acting from St Mary’s University Twickenham.

We love seeing our Ella once in a while! Ella has been with us since she was 6 years old, having regular weekly lessons with Loren for much of that time, and now reducing to once-a-month visits at age 14 to keep on top of her craft alongside her performing arts classes t 🎵🎤

Ella is a strong musical theatre singer, but she’s continued to nurture her love of commercial music with us so as not to lose that tone that can often be ironed out through musical theatre training. A true talent when it comes to wearing different hats across different genres, and a brilliant example of the versatility it takes to make it in the industry!

A life changing opportunity for our talented teens! 🎵🎤

BEETLEJUICE OPEN AUDITIONS- NEWS

Open auditions for the role of everyone’s favourite dark darling of the dearly departed, and Beetlejuice: The Musical leading lady, Lydia Deetz, have been announced today.

Dark, smart and moody, with a jet-black sense of humour and a streak of anarchy, Lydia's a step ahead of almost everyone she meets – living or dead. But she's at the mercy of a mania, just like Beetlejuice. Lydia wants life to mean something. The world seems small to her since her mother died; she longs for it to reveal itself as something more fantastical than it is. She's heart-forward, and on a quest to find a reason to live.

Producers are looking for a female-presenting actor, playing age - late teens (16 -18), no taller than 5'4" and of any appearance. So don’t miss your chance to hang out with the baddest bio-exorcist in town, in the most anticipated Broadway transfer of recent years. The open call will be held on Thursday 22nd January, 10am – 6pm at a central London location.

For more information and to register your interest, please visit www.harryblumenau.com/beetlejuice.

The musical will make its West End debut at London’s Prince Edward Theatre, a Delfont Mackintosh Theatre, where it plays a strictly limited run from Wednesday 20 May, 2026 – Saturday 17 April, 2027.
