“Whenever I direct a production, I hire Dolly Kanekuni to give my cast that extra edge of excellence with their songs. Her work is impeccable and I rely on her vocal expertise to bring out the absolute best in my cast members.”

“Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You believed in me - even after a horrific audition! I know that it was your support and coaching that got me this awesome part! You have been invaluable to me in this journey. Your grace, class and beauty while you effectively taught us dramatic personalities has been incredible! I have loved knowing that such an incredible soul as you exists in the world - and I got to rub shoulders with her!”

“Thank you again SO much for working with me on those songs before I went in to record - it made all the difference in the world!!“

“Dolly’s coaching and expertise have helped tame my voice into an instrument that will allow me to sing for years, even decades, to come. This confidence to overcome obstacles is priceless.“

“Every vocal coach says they’re nurturing, understand the singer and know technique, but very few teachers really reach the depth of nurturing support and kindness that Dolly brings. She has what it takes to help a singer find their very best.“

“I’m amazed at what we’re able to accomplish in vocal training remotely online! Working with Dolly from the comfort of my home has taken years of weight off my voice and increased my range. Her direction is clear and she is supportive of every effort. I’m enjoying the journey of discovering and developing my voice from across the miles! “

“I have been studying with Dolly Kanekuni for many years, both online and in person. I have gained so much confidence working with her. Because of Dolly’s coaching, my vocal range has really broadened, my vibrato is strong, and I’m not afraid of any note-high or low. Whatever challenges a song presents, Dolly helps me navigate the hard parts so I can communicate the song’s message. Dolly’s style of teaching is encouraging and uplifting. Every time I have a lesson, I feel more able, empowered and excited.“
