NYC based creative and performing artist, Anna Cley fell into opera singing in her teenage years. Originally from France, and a former rocket scientist, Anna's passion is to explore trance through music, arts and hypnosis. Her spiritual quest and search for meaning grew her interest for astrophysics as a child, and pushed her in recent years to found VOCALISE, seeking to empower those who experienced trauma.

​

Anna's evolution into contemporary collaborations allows her to co-create new works, merging opposite universes to give birth to the world of tomorrow. Her unique voice and artistry arouse the greatest emotions and praise in the most unexpected environments. The beauty of those moments in addition to her desire for more creativity pushed her to seek different scenes and singular collaborations. By combining the use of vocal harmonics and drama with other art forms, Anna challenges the boundaries of genres.

​

Anna is also an entrepreneur. Taking advantage of her career and stage experience, she expands her work as a performance and leadership expert through Voice On The Rocks, sharing the art of charisma and the use of breathing and voice to build momentum.

After some time volunteering in hospitals for children, Anna founded the nonprofit VOCALISE to instill hope, courage, strength and self-respect into children impacted by trauma. Anna imagined and wrote the forthcoming book "The Journey of the Heart".
