The Vocal Awakening

The Vocal Awakening 🎶 Franco-American Singer-Songwriter & Vocal Coach. Born in Paris, now based in Knock, Co. Mayo. Helping you find strength and spirit through song. 🎶

Currently crafting my original album and coaching voices in Pop, Country, Jazz, Soul, and CCM. ✨ About ✨

I’m Sarah — a singer, vocal artist, and vocal coach based in County Mayo, Ireland. My work weaves together two beautiful threads: worship through song and live entertainment. Whether I’m leading a heartfelt worship evening or bringing joy to a lively pub night, my goal is always the same — to

uplift, connect, and move people through music. I offer voice lessons for all ages, and I perform across a range of styles including pop, country, jazz, musical theatre, and contemporary Christian music. My musical journey is rooted in authenticity, presence, and the power of the human voice. Follow my page for upcoming gigs, worship events, vocal tips, and new recordings. 🎤💫
Let’s stay connected through the magic of music!

Does your throat ever feel "dry" or "scratchy" halfway through a song? 🌵

Here’s a secret: The water you drink doesn't actually touch your vocal cords (if it did, you’d choke!). Instead, it hydrates your body from the inside out, creating the healthy moisture your voice needs to vibrate easily.

The Golden Rule at The Vocal Awakening: Drink your water at least 2 hours before you plan to sing. Give your body time to absorb it!

Pro Tip: It’s much better to drink smaller amounts consistently throughout the day rather than downing a giant bottle right before you start. Your body can only absorb so much at once—steady sipping keeps your vocal "engine" running smoothly all day long! 💧

Are you a water chugger or do you forget to drink until you're thirsty? Let’s keep those voices hydrated! ✨

Hi everyone! Let's talk about something super important for every single singer out there, no matter your experience level:

SINGERS SHOULD NEVER SING ON A COLD VOICE. 🎤

Think of it like this: your voice is an instrument, and just like any instrument, it needs to be tuned up before you play. If you haven't warmed up, you haven't truly started your session. It's not about being "perfect," it's about protecting your voice and letting it shine its brightest!

Dear Friends,

As an artist and vocal coach, I believe music is the most powerful way to honor those who have shaped our world. Following the passing of Brigitte Bardot on December 28, 2025, I wanted to pay tribute to her extraordinary life and her tireless devotion to animal welfare.

I am proud to share "L’Étoile de L’âme" (The Star of the Soul), a song I wrote and performed to celebrate her transition from a screen muse to a lifelong protector of the living. This project was a journey in capturing both the strength and the vulnerability of her spirit through song. I invite you to watch the full tribute on my YouTube channel. 🎤✨

Coming this February: A journey into the mist. ✨

I am thrilled to announce the upcoming release of my newest track, "Whispers Through The Mist." This song was composed to be your escape—a melodic sanctuary where the veil of twilight meets the haunting call of the Celtic harp. Whether you need to relax, dream, or find inspiration, I hope this music guides you home. 🌿🌬️

The Secret to Helping Your Child Sing Better 🎈

Does your child love to sing around the house? 🎤✨

One of the most common things I see with young singers is "shoulder-shrugging." When kids (and even adults!) try to take a big breath to hit a high note, they often pull their shoulders up to their ears.

This actually creates tension in the neck and makes singing much harder than it needs to be!

The Fix? The Balloon Breath. 🎈

Next time your little star is practicing, try this simple visualization together:

The Fill-Up: Tell them their belly is like a colorful balloon. When they breathe in, the balloon should "inflate" (their tummy moves out).

The Support: As they sing their favorite song, tell them to let the air out of the balloon slowly and steadily.

The Result: This keeps the breath low, the shoulders relaxed, and the voice supported!

It’s a fun, silly way to teach a very important professional vocal technique without it feeling like "work."

At The Vocal Awakening, I love making these technical "boring" bits of singing feel like a game for children. When they understand how their body works, their confidence soars!

Does your child have a favorite "go-to" song they are obsessed with right now? Let me know in the comments—I’d love to hear what the next generation is listening to! 👇

It’s official—the journey begins today! ✨

Welcome to The Vocal Awakening. 🎤

I am so excited to finally share this space with you. For a long time, I’ve believed that singing isn't just a talent reserved for the "lucky few." It is a muscle, a skill, and most importantly, a form of joy that belongs to everyone.

Whether you are: 🌟 An adult who has always wanted to sing but was told you "couldn't carry a tune." 🌟 A parent looking to nurture your child’s natural love for music in a fun, healthy way. 🌟 Or a seasoned pro looking to refine your technique and keep your voice healthy.
..this is the place for you!

At The Vocal Awakening, we focus on more than just hitting the right notes. We focus on confidence, vocal health, and finding the unique sound that is already inside you. Sometimes, your voice just needs a little nudge to wake up!

What to expect here: Starting tomorrow, I’ll be sharing daily tips, vocal exercises, and mindset shifts for both adults and children. We are going to build a strong foundation together, one breath at a time.

I’m so glad you’re here. Let’s make some noise! 🎶
