Bio
KIM WOOD SANDUSKY is one of the most influential vocal coaches in the global music industry. Her client roster speaks of her success, such as her work with Artists such as Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, Michelle Williams, Destiny’s Child, Tom Keifer of Cinderella, Paul Meany of MuteMath, Dave Barnes, Francesca Battistelli, Toby Mac, Jeremy Camp, Jaci Velasquez, James Otto, Pam Tillis, producer David Foster—and the list goes on.
Industry giants Sony, Columbia, Warner Brothers, Hollywood Records, Disney, EMI, MCA, RCA, Motown, and Capitol (just to name a few) have placed their trust in Kim to push the Artist’s vocal capabilities to their ultimate potential. Whether the Artist needs to increase range, build breathing stamina, develop a particular style, or is experiencing vocal medical problems such as hoarseness on tour or in the recording studio, Kim has the know-how and experience to handle the Artist with care without changing or covering up natural talent.
A Texas native, Kim now resides in Nashville. Her vocal studio is on “Music Row,” the heart of Music City’s recording district and home to major record labels and publishing companies. She began her career as a performer, traveling across the United States with other Artists. Along the way Kim discovered that singers always came to her for help with their songs and vocal issues, and she realized her true calling was to be a vocal consultant. Kim provides vocal consulting for both signed and independent Artists and offers Artist development to signed and unsigned talent. Performing Artists in various Broadway shows in New York as well have sought her advice. Kim also produces in the recording studio. One of her many vocal projects is the Grammy Award-winning “Survivor” album by Destiny’s Child. Kim is an active voting member of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences the organization that decides the Grammy Awards.
Drawing on her extensive knowledge and experience with vocal Artists, Kim has formulated and trademarked a progressive method called “Vocal Builder Techniquetm” that meets and exceeds the standards of today’s competitive music industry. “Vocal Builder” is an approachable, practical, and easy-to-use series on DVD designed for the professional or anyone who wants to sing. By taking advantage of the Vocal Builder program—either on DVD or one-on-one in her Nashville studio—Kim is certain she can help vocal artists reach for their dreams and beyond.
