This Academy changed to course of my life and I could not be happier with the results I have gotten!! I only joined in August of 2017 and my experience has far exceeded my expectations. Neil Fuentes is my singing teacher and he helped me unlock a voice I didn’t know I had. If I could give this review 100 stars I would, it is and exceptional school for kids of all ages and even adults!​

​
Upon arriving in the United States in 1995 Neil began a 18- year career working his way up the hospitality ladder to become the Director of Catering for the popular multi-unit brew house and restaurant, Southport Brewing Company. Neil put his food and entertainment talents together, creating impressive events, innovative menus, and a flare for the theatrical. In 2006 Neil joined the Connecticut Gay Men's Chorus and continues to perform throughout the state. 

In 2012 Neil joins Sonido Libre, a 12 piece Salsa Band as lead singer. Neil develops an amazing show with this band which has been performing since then through the Tri-State Area.
