“Jennifer Truesdale was recommended to me as one of the best in New England. I believe she is the best. I have only been studying with Jennifer at Jeanie Deva Voice Studios for several months, and in those months I was convinced that every time I saw her, this woman had some sort of magical fairy dust that she sprinkled on my vocal chords. But what I have come to realize is that it’s not magic. Jennifer’s gift is a rarity, in that she has the ability to take a singer and teach them how to awaken and utilize what they already have inside themselves. My range has increased dramatically and I am able to hit notes that for the longest time I was only able to hear in my head. My pitch and consistency, as well as my vocal durability have never been better.”

“I’ve just recently finished 6 months of voice lessons with Jennifer Truesdale at Jeannie Deva Voice Studios and I am amazed by the results! These past 6 months have transformed my voice into the voice I always wanted, but never before had access to. The whole transformation process was an amazing experience….it taught me that a little effort every day, combined with the right techniques and guidance from a true expert in a structured setting, would bring me results far beyond what I could have ever imagined or achieved on my own. Through this program I have been given the best gift a singer could ever hope for…my own authentic voice. Thank you Jennifer!

“I’ve noticed a definite ease in singing with volume. Notes already seem to be rolling more easily with the tension taken off my throat. By applying the Deva Method, I have, first and foremost, the physical benefit of easier volume and a new confidence to go along with it.”
- Patty Griffin

"I have experienced an incredible change in my vocal power and flexibility since studying with Jennifer at Jeannie Deva Voice Studios. I feel the difference when I perform; more freedom and ease that I did not have before. I have worked on singing for many years with other teachers and never have the positive changes been more apparent. Thanks to Jeannie and Jennifer!”

"I have been singing since my early teens, show choir, garage bands... the works. But I had realized I had taught myself wrong!! My "Rock Voice" was filled with tension and strain, constantly forcing myself to those notes and sounds. When I got my record deal and moved to Boston, I heard someone mention Jeannie Deva® Voice Studios. It suddenly hit me that I had seen her on one of my tapes in my old VHS collection! I was so excited to learn more about her method, as I had loved the short lesson she gave regarding voice mechanics. Since my very first lesson with Craig, my thought process began to change, and I could feel the tension releasing. Her method is purely Facts and Simple Truths that work! I will continue to use these methods and my Warm-Up CDs for my entire career. Thanks so much Craig and Jeannie!"

“I started classes at Jeannie Deva Voice Studios (Boston) because after singing in rock bands for 10 years, my voice had become hoarse and my range had decreased. Through constant exercises and new knowledge of vocal anatomy, my range is back and I have confidence once again! Thank you!”

“I have been a singer all my life. Since age six, I have been in musical theater, I have sung in church choirs, and also throughout high school and college I sang The National Anthem at all sporting events.

About three years ago, once work became busy, I stopped my "singing" related activities and only sang at the occasional wedding ceremony. I have a high-pressure sales job that requires constant talking and a huge amount of phone time. Over the last two years, I have had what can only be described as a horribly hoarse speaking voice. Now, not only could I not sing anymore, but also I could not talk. This affected my personal life, my professional life, and my self-confidence. Being able to sing and tell stories is who I am!! When I could no longer do this, I went to several medical specialists who could not find anything physically wrong. They told me I had "vocal abuse" from too much talking. At this point, I was completely devastated thinking that I would forever have laryngitis and would never sing again.

I discovered Jeannie Deva Voice Studios and came to a consultation with Jennifer. She had me sing something so she could get an idea of what we were working with. I sang my "standard", The National Anthem, and I was completely mortified by the sound! Jennifer said that she could help through the Deva Method. After hearing myself sing, I had major doubts, but I began lessons with Jennifer.

After about a month, it no longer hurt me to talk. After about three months I had very minimal hoarseness and NO laryngitis. After six months, I began to hear my "old" singing voice come back. Jennifer had assured me that it was still there, and she was right - that was the most exciting day of this whole year!

I never have a hoarse voice anymore and I am able to sing songs again. I can quantify my success with the fact that through Jennifer's patient, diligent work with me, I am able to talk as much as I want - my vocal folds are getting their strength back. Because of this, my sales at work have increased by at least 50%. I no longer have trouble on the phone or with customers because my voice, and hence my self-confidence, is back too!! I can't say enough good things about this method - it saved my voice. Thank you Jennifer, and thank you Jeannie Deva!”

“Wow!! What a difference a couple of months can make! Thank you to Jeannie Deva Voice Studios and special thanks to Jennifer Truesdale for her experience, patience and dedication.”

“I’ve trained with many other instructors over the years, but never had a sense of freedom and control with my voice. With the Deva Method, I’ve been able to achieve heights I never dreamed were possible. I’m able to use my voice as an instrument to express and communicate in a free, relaxed manner. I sing in a Rock and Blues band and my training at Jeannie Deva Voice Studios has freed my voice to be able to meet the demands of singing rock and has allowed me to develop a blues style that I’ve always aspired to. Working with Tony has been extremely empowering and he has helped me to open a lot of doors and make a lot of wonderful discoveries.”
– Cathy Sanchez, The Usual Suspects

“The Deva Method has changed my way of singing and thinking about singing forever! I no longer have to reach for pitch or worry about vocal blowout. I have more range and power and I can’t believe the ease with which I sing. My voice is now my friend!"
- Dawn Florence

“If I knew I was going to learn this much, I would’ve come here years ago!”
