  • With over 15 years experience, Adam has helped thousands of students singing dreams become a reality. From complete beginners, to seasoned professionals, Adam teaches a wide variety of students and styles, with a special interest in vocal rehabilitation.

    Adam has received awards, and performed professionally throughout Australia, Europe, and Asia. These performances include concerts, recitals, and productions across many genres from Metal, Rock, jazz, Pop, Musical Theatre, and Classical. It is this love of, and ability to sing in many different styles that uniquely positions Adam as a multi genre singing teacher, vocal coach and voice technician.

    Having studied singing and voice for over 25 years, Adam has had the pleasure of working with a variety of teachers and coaches– these include Jon Weaving (Australia); Gary May (Australia); Daniel Ferro (Juilliard School of Music); Jan Philip Schultze (Germany); Robert Kopelson (USA); Bruno Rigacci (Italy).

    It was during his extensive studies with Jon Weaving, that Adam’s talent for teaching was recognised. Through Jon’s encouragement, Adam began teaching at his vocal studio, and it was here that Adam realised his true passion was helping others learn and develop their singing.

    After the passing of Jon Weaving in 2011, Adam founded his own vocal studio, Armstrong’s School of Singing. It is here that he developed the SingEasy™️ Vocal Program. Suitable for all abilities and styles, SingEasy is designed to help everyone discover just how fun and easy singing can and should be.
