Your vocal coach

Tanya Wells is a British/ Swiss singer-songwriter and spent several childhood years living in North India where language, diverse music and culture informed the ears and imagination of this talented singer.

Her flexible vocal style (attributed to years of having learnt North Indian classical vocal) has given her opportunities to perform with world renown artists such as sitarist Anoushka Shankar (Cannes Film festival 2014), soul singer Joss Stone (Mama Stones 2013), Arabic vocalist Natacha Atlas (Ronnie Scotts 2016) as well as lay down vocals for award winning film composers such as A.R. Rahman and Nitin Sawhney.

With a double Masters (with distinction) in International Performance Research, Tanya now embraces the praxis of bringing cultures together to tell stories through music with her band Seven Eyes.

“How quick it was and with so little effort one can improve one’s voice and have great results. I've never had so much fun learning music.”

Pedro Ribeiro Costa, Portugal (Find Your Voice Course 2021)


“Tanya is one of the few people I’ve encountered on the music circuit that was skilled and knowledgeable enough to assist me because of her background in western and Indian vocal techniques.”
