John Sawaya Tracy (also knowns as Mister Tracy) is a Lebanese-Canadian Singer (Tenor), Pianist, Composer, Songwriter, Arranger, Creator and Voice Coach.
Born in a family of musicians, composers and painters, John spent his childhood submerged in sound and colour. Obsessed with music and the Voice, he starts learning Piano at the age of 7. Having graduated in Opera and Jazz from the Conservatoire in France (Studio of Prof. Yves Sotin, Paris) and McGill University (Studio of Prof. Stefano Algieri, Montreal), he performs opera roles and oratorios in France and Québec. John performed in renowned venues such as the Place des Arts (Montreal), Palais de l’Unesco (Paris), Theâtre Impérial de compiègne (Île-de-France) and La Salle Bourgie (Montreal).
Since 2012, John has been arranging and songwriting music and instrumental pieces for events, venues and artists. He has worked with and even coached artists such as Maya Waked, Michael Mando, Georges Manoukian and the band Zappien.
John is also a Voice coach. He relies on the potential of the body and the mind in order to make the most of his students. He currently also runs his own YouTube channel and coaching business in Montreal.
His musical universe blends Pop and Jazz in an unconventional electronic approach. Greatly influenced by Ella Fitzgerald, Queen, Carole King, Alicia Keys, and Chet Baker, he started writing music during childhood and never stopped. Meticulous about his writing approach, Tracy is obsessed with musical colours, voices and chord progressions. Mister Tracy believes in variety and a limitless possibility in what the human voice can achieve.
Mister Tracy is represented by Salloway Records (Montreal, Canada).
