I’m James Snyder — a working Broadway actor with over two decades onstage, onscreen, and in song. And I help people like you connect to their voice, tell their story, and express something real.
Through coaching grounded in professional training and heartfelt storytelling, I’ll help you sing, speak, and perform with authenticity, confidence, and freedom.
This isn’t just about technique. It’s about reclaiming something that’s yours.
Ready to find your voice? Let’s work together.
"James brings his incredible energy & expertise from Broadway, television, and more to every voice session we have. Whether it’s his unique vocal exercises, (based on what I’m needing that day), or sifting through my endless song lists, to support my current show vision, I get honest and constructive feedback to better myself as an artist".

"Working with James has been a true gift for our son, Jake. Not only is James an exceptionally skilled performer and teacher – with an impressive background in Broadway, television, music and more, but he is also one of those rare mentors who truly connects with kids. Our son looks forward to every session and continues to grow in confidence, technique and joy thanks to James’ thoughtful guidance. We feel incredibly lucky to be working with him".

I have sung all of my life, performing in musicals with Tony Award winners at theaters ranging from The Paper Mill Playhouse to the Pittsburgh CLO. Even with all that experience under my belt, my singing skills and confidence in said skills, my vocal stamina, technical prowess, and interpretive abilities -- it all improved with leaps and bounds when I began working with James Snyder"

“I came back to music and performing as a solo artist in mid-life with James’ guidance. With all the ‘accomplishments’ in my life…something was missing. But because of his support, I am now owning ‘my role’ in my family’s artistic legacy.”
