Nina Pelligra
Nina has a loop station. She likes to take her favorite alternative rock songs and make jazzy a ca****la arrangements of them.
I hope everyone had a very happy Thanksgiving! There's only a couple days left of my Black Friday sale! Until Monday, you can get three private voice lessons and a ticket to a future group singing workshop for $200, a $255 value.
This opportunity would also be a wonderful gift for someone special in your life whose voice deserves to be heard and appreciated. It can be nerve-wracking to book a lesson and share your voice. Sometimes a little push from someone who believes in you goes a long way.
Here's the link to book a voice lesson for yourself or a fellow singer: https://calendly.com/nina_pelligra/holiday3pack
Happy singing!
Working one-on-one with so many creative and passionate singers has been a blast this year, so what kind of a small business owner would I be without offering a Black Friday deal to keep the party going?
For one week only, I am offering three private voice lessons and a ticket to a future group singing workshop for $200 ($255 value, over 20% off)!
Singing is a skill, not a talent. If you have taken lessons with me before, or just been following my videos with audition strategies, then you know how practicing a few habits can make you feel more in control of your singing voice. Anyone, regardless of age, taste, experience, or even "talent" can become a more confident and professional singer with a few simple skills.
Here's the link to book your first lesson in the bundle. Happy singing!

Happy Halloween from the pumpkin patch everyone! 🎃
This time of year, it’s important to find little moments to do things you enjoy. Keep your sense of self strong by listening to that song that is SO YOU or seeing a new musician perform at a venue where you have lots of good memories with the people who know you better than anyone.
Happy singing!
Whossat choir lady with the boots?
Anyone else end up with pencils in their hair doing score study?? 😂
If you’re not learning, you’re dying
Still trying to keep up with the whole social media thing.

Some great tips from Boytim, but I get a feeling my students would NOT enjoy her teaching style 🤣🤣 Singing Nina-style is supposed to be FUN, not work!
Happy singing!
Breakfast in bed after a killer voice lesson - working on Uprising by Muse with an absolute rock star student ⭐️ Brenda Griffin
Attending a small business workshop through SBDC (a free, legit service that offers small business advising), and they said I have to post on social media, so here it is. This is my studio. I teach singing and direct a rock choir and record and produce. And a bunch of other stuff, honestly.
Happy singing!
Celebrating a successful spring of recording college kids singing “dmdoodohhhhh!” - Beyond excited to dig into these recordings when I get home (once the smoke clears 😬)
Lunch break

Old video, kinda spooky - it’s about what happens when you die and who you might meet

Welcome to a day in the life of Rock Voices… we laugh, we sing, we jam. RSVP if you or someone you know wants to join us this fall! https://fb.me/e/3vg27Psdl
Thus begins my adventure at the CD Baby's DIY Musician Conference in Austin… chips and salsa with my coffee! Happy birthday to me 🌮

THIS COULD BE YOU!! Rock Voices is starting our next concert season in September, and we would love to have you! No auditions, and no experience or perceived talent necessary. This group came a long way with practice and passion. We are just so proud. It's so rewarding to see this all come together at the concert, make new friends, and work toward something as a team. We have a great concert lineup including Stevie Wonder, Styx, Journey, and Lake Street Dive. Come hang out with me on Tuesday evenings at May Memorial Unitarian Universalist :) Check it out: https://mailchi.mp/rockvoices.com/fall2022?fbclid=IwAR1P0tOEC3ejFahqR6WIJygoI1O9kzRWQ5ol-Qdzyef3Z-KORIYiV--Hp4Q
Notes for a new loop arrangement! If you can guess it I will dedicate the video to you
What an incredible experience it was to debut Voices Syracuse. We did a really good thing. I am just so proud. If you missed it, you'll just have to come and join the fun next season - or even join the group! Some of these lovely people have never even sung with a choir before. We've come such a long way. We had a sold out show and a standing ovation. What a joyous evening. Not to mention, we raised $494 for Vera House. Just so much good, I can't get over it.
What a lovely group of people I had the pleasure of working with on this beautiful performance of July. This was an easy one to produce - they sound amazing, I'll put the YouTube link to their new music video in the comments!
Are you ready for tonight????!
TOMORROW IS THE BIG SHOW! This group has been working so hard and I am just so proud of this really good thing we are doing. 7pm tomorrow! https://fb.me/e/1JCcqZYKt
I love these people and this song is the prettiest, I can’t wait to see the video!
Surprise! Our music video for “July” OPB Noah Cyrus will premiere tomorrow at 12pm!
We had such a great time recording “July” with in spring of 2021 and filming our music video with this past semester! We cannot wait for you all to see what we’ve been working on💓
Word doodles - Water:
It pulls me
I cannot control the debris the water sends me
I can hardly resist its influence on my own body
Even so, the resistance is slow
And that will never hurt me
I learned patience today
And how to stop time
When you fill it up you lose it
When you empty it, it never existed
A big wave came
I wasn’t waiting for it
Had nothing to control it
But it came and I enjoyed it
I look out to the horizon
I enjoy the way it shines
Even the waves that are too far to reach
They’ve reached me anyhow
All I need is water:
Clouds
Snow
And myself
I’m a red panda munching
Wandering, pi***ng
It makes others feel safe and happy
Just to know that I’m around
And if the waves pull be under
And my lungs fill with water
And I float away
The water was in me already anyway
🌊
An important part of the hustle: a little rest, a little free play, a little inspiration from my bf Dave.
Posi vibes only today!!

A little tune by me - full video on YT
We can go where there's a sunny delight just waiting for us as we thirst
There's a mysterious night just waiting to drink us up like before birth
Andy and Cinderella will be catching lady bugs by the water, and I'll say
"Johnny, we're finally where we belong."
And when the price is right, you'll take my hand and call me Miss America
We'll float up to the sky and look down on the Andes, and I'll realize where I am
Andy and Cinderella will be somewhere over the rainbow, and I'll say
"Bonnie, we're finally where we belong."
And in the distance I'll hear the music that started it all
The sound of sweet beginnings and bittersweet ends
I guess we'll never know what's there after the fall
I hope that I'll be ready when I hear the call
And I'll say, "Larry, we're finally where we belong."

For my next YouTube series, I was thinking of doing a whole set of Nirvana songs? What do you think?
Feat. Heart-Shaped Box in my backyard in the rain last summer
That concludes this YouTube series of donor-requested songs! I have so much love and appreciation for the people that have supported me in sharing my music. I'm blessed to be living out my dream, performing and producing.
The next step is to book more live performances. I've had the pleasure of singing on some big stages this winter, not only as a performer, but an MC. Shoot me your ideas for places to play - even at your own event! It's hard to organize and entertain at the same time, so I can be your face and personality, if you need.
Thank you for listening, and take a listen to the whole series here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLp4TG6Z40YLvuzEgttta6T0wC4LWW20ZI
