“10 Vocal Intensive days that felt like being part of a dream come true reality television show or a day in the life of an American Idol or The Voice”- Sheldon
Crystal Nicole and manager
(writer of “Only Girl in the World” by Rihanna and “Touch My Body” by Mariah Carey)
Nightly Dinners with mentors:
(producers, songwriters, record label execs, industry veterans)
Nightly performances including:
Jojo who blew everyone away with her dare to say flawless performance
Sheldon was also featured on one of the nights as he would give a performance in front of the panel of Raab Stevenson (Justin Timberlake/Pharrell/Dave Matthews vocal coach), Crystal Nicole (http://www.iamcrystalnicole.com/about/) and Haley Pharo (fortunate to sing for Michael Jackson Neverland Ranch on multiple occasions amongst other credits)

Sheldon returned to Hollywood in February to write more music. At the winter retreat he met with Natasha Bedingfield, Hoobastank, Denosh Bennett, Goapele, Lawson (UK)…
