Teacher Lakshmi

Lakshmi DelSesto is a natural born singer. From an early age she was always singing. In her earliest days she would spend her time learning to sing entire albums of music, cover to cover. Soundtracks to movies and musicals such as, “A Star is Born” (Original), “The Sound of Music”, “Fiddler on the Roof” and later music such as The Pretenders, David Bowie, and Earth, Wind and Fire, and more. She was a classic hair brush microphone singer. :)

Later Lakshmi studied music in college and wrote her own major in Ethnomusicology with a minor in music & singing.

On her own, she went on to study all kinds of western and world music from Folk, to R&B, MidEast drums to Indian Kirtan harmonium.

She has been an avid performer for over 25 years and still performs regularly in professional corporate bands, with her original music trio, and whatever else comes her way. 

Her musical life includes live performances, Studio work, private vocal lessons, performance coaching, creative mentoring, Children's music classes, and casual jams in many a backyard.
