Title: TG/Androgyne musician and singing teacher from the UK.
Post by: KerryJK on March 28, 2016, 04:22:46 AM
Hi all - I'm Kerry, a musician, teacher and misfit from the UK.  I've been openly transgender (m>f) since the early 2000s (mostly at the genderfluid/non-binary/androgyne point of the spectrum, though I have presented full femme on occasion) and have performed under various guises both male and female (though I was always  happiest doing the latter).  These days I'm settled with a wonderful (and supportive) wife and focused mostly on teaching, though I still release independent music to a commercial level to keep my skills up. 

I've a particular interest in voice modification and cross-gender singing techniques, which I've written about briefly on my website (which I won't link just yet, in order to avoid spamming) - this may develop into a book or DVD at some point, as part of the research I'm  very interested in hearing from (and possibly collaborating with) any f>m transgender vocalists to get their perspective.

You're certainly an interesting, ambitious lady. Welcome to Susan's. Hope you find what you need here.

Hi, Kerry! Welcome.

Quotevoice modification and cross-gender singing techniques

How interesting! The voice is such a pivot point in passing as the non-biological gender.
