Music city accelerator
Finding your voice starts with the right foundation. Music City Accelerator’s Intro to Vocal Training is a 10-session, beginner-friendly online course designed to help new singers build healthy habits, understand their instrument, and develop confidence — all from home with the hands-on guidance of expert vocal coach, Rashida Bryant. Whether you’re warming up in your bedroom, singing in the shower, or preparing for your first open mic, this course gives you the tools to explore your voice safely and expressively.
This online vocal class creates a relaxed, supportive learning environment where new singers can grow at their own pace. You’ll work with guided exercises and personalized feedback designed to match your vocal range and musical interests. No prior experience is required — just curiosity and a willingness to explore your voice.

Our Intro to Vocal Training course is designed specifically for beginners. You’ll learn in a welcoming, judgment-free environment where the focus is on discovering how your voice works, how to use it safely, and how to express yourself naturally. The online format makes it especially accessible for students who want structured vocal guidance without needing to travel or perform in front of a room.
