About Brooke Bates

Brooke Bates is a vocal coach, singer, and voice-over artist based in Bellingham, WA, passionate about helping adults, retirees, and teens find joy, confidence, and creativity through singing.

With decades of experience on stage and in the studio, Brooke brings a blend of artistry, technique, and heartfelt connection to every lesson. Her teaching style is encouraging and intuitive — focused on helping you express yourself, not just hit the right notes.

Brooke knows that stepping up to the mic can be intimidating, especially if you’ve never sung before. That’s why her approach is warm, relaxed, and rooted in self-expression. Whether your dream is to perform with a band, join a community choir, or finally sing that one song you’ve always loved, Brooke helps you build the skills and confidence to make it happen.

When she’s not teaching, Brooke records as a voiceover artist and performs as a backup vocalist, keeping her connected to both sides of the music industry — performance and production. This gives her students real-world insight and inspiration to bring their own performances to life.
