"Your power of spirit in goddess embodiment touches my soul. The radiant, creative luminosity you generously share though channeling, healing, invocations, song, art and ritual: Priestess Extraordinaire.

~Jen Pettit

MISSION

I paint and sing to restore the innate goodness and truth of humankind.

My work is about the connection to that which is mysterious, good and holy about us.

When I sing, I open a channel to divine, angelic love so that I can remember my own beauty, and hopefully, I can transmit this to others so they too can remember.

I truly believe we are all part of the same breath of spirit, that life on Earth is a miracle, and creativity is who we are.

CC Treadway is a New York based soprano, professional choral singer, sound healer and singer songwriter. As a crossover artist, she performs across traditions in the sacred music genre including Irish, Kirtan, Oratorio, community singing and original music. Her career as an educator and healer in the fields of spirituality and the arts spans over 25 years. She is a multidisciplinary artist, including video editing, painting, illustrating and writing.

CC sings with the All Souls and Música Viva choirs in NYC, and is a soloist in the creative collective, “Crescent” based in the Hudson Valley where her original music is featured. Her solo shows weave together original, classical, folk, Irish, storytelling and the sacred through passionate emotions - creating a rich, musical landscape from which to open the heart.

She tours with kirtan artist Radharani, and Joseph Eid and was a member for three years with the Thom Sessa Inspirational Gospel Choir in Miami, Fl. She studied at the Juilliard School in New York City for classical voice.

As a visual artist, CC is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design and has been creating mystical animal paintings, with shows throughout the Hudson Valley. She is known for conveying mysterious, healing and soulful expressions in the eyes of the animals of the forest, and the ones in our dreams. She was accepted into the prestigious Chateau d'Orquevaux residency in Dijon, France for summer of 2024. She worked for 15 years as a professional video editor for companies such as Discovery Channel, MTV, HBO, as well as specialized in music videos for Latin artists such as Juanes and Thalia.

Along with her creative expressions, CC was a born intuitive and healer, and has worked as an energy healer, teacher of esoteric and creative studies as well as transformational coach for 20 years. She trained at the renowned Barbara Brennan School of Healing, completing the 4 -year hands on energy healing training, as well as the 2-year, advanced transpersonal psychology certification, among many other trainings. She has run her own private program for 20 years training healers, coaches and creative mystics. Her speciality has been working with women to heal from sexual & relational trauma to become the creative visionaries and healers they were born to be.

Her articles on the topics of healing, transformation and personal growth, were published monthly for six years on her teacher Drunvalo Melchizedeks online magazine, The Spirit of Maat.

Ultimately, CC believes that the healing transmitted through music and the arts has the ability to make profound, positive impacts on society for generations to come.

Art and music have the unmistakable power to connect with the human soul on the deepest level.
