About The Singer Center

Built by performers.
For performers.

The Singer Center is a performance studio founded by working professionals who know what it takes to build a real career in music and performing arts. We don't just teach technique — we train the whole artist.

Our story

Why we built this

The Singer Center was founded by Gianni Becker and Derek Adams — two performing artists who between them have appeared in Broadway national tours, headlined in Las Vegas, and performed on international stages. Their combined performance credits include backup vocal work alongside Josh Groban, the Jonas Brothers, the Red Clay Strays, Carrie Underwood, and Brandon Flowers. They built this studio because they'd experienced firsthand what serious training looks like, and what it doesn't.

"We wanted a studio where the standard is professional-grade — not just for students aiming at Broadway, but for anyone serious enough to invest in themselves."

The result is a studio where science-backed vocal methodology meets real performance experience. Every instructor here has a career in the field, not just the classroom. That's not an accident — it's the standard we hire to.

Our approach

How we teach

Trained & Certified Instructors

Every instructor advances through a structured training and certification ladder, regardless of discipline — so the guidance you get is consistent, whether you're working on voice, piano, or performance.

Career-Minded Training

Technique is the foundation, not the finish line. We work with students on audition prep, repertoire strategy, stage presence, and the professional habits that move you from the practice room to the stage.

Whole-Artist Development

Voice is one dimension. Our roster covers movement coaching, performance direction, vocal production, and photography — because a complete artist needs more than one skill to compete.
