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.

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