Thought I'd share a song I just finished up. Maybe doesn't show off my vocals super well just because it's an old song I only wanted to redo a few lines on and also the vocals are drenched in effects, but it is what I've been working on lately, among many other things. And I do like where it stands. https://tothesun.bandcamp.com/track/heaven-fallen

One month until Winter! What are you currently working on? Whether training, prepping for a show, recording, writing, or whatever you might have going on in the world of music, we would love to hear about it! Personally, I'm finally at the end of a year-long journey of changing my voice to fit a more Southern Gothic Rock style than the Progressive Hard Rock/Metal I was doing before. I'm still trying to relax into it rather than force it, but a more forward/fast vibrato, a lot of grit, and some wild vocal runs, I finally feel like I found a passionate and colorful singing voice that seems to fit like a glove. I hope to soon start finalizing the demos of at least 15 of the 50 songs I've written. I'll likely post a few here when they're ready. I've also been producing one of my students and getting back into mixing and mastering a bit more as well. All of that while prepping a new, premiere coaching program for Rock Singing Success. Unfortunately after 23 years of marriage, life took a very unexpected, confusing, and stressful wrong turn this year. So, everything is taking far longer than I had hoped, but I'm excited for what comes next—even if it's not entirely what I had originally planned.

Seriously though, all shirtlessness aside, I can't say I care for the overly dramatic first couple of lines but the scream itself does seem pretty dead-on to me. What I'm noticing in particular is a few seconds in, he seems to lock it into place and really turn on some good sounding distortion. Does that seem like an accurate assessment? It's something I can't quite imitate. I can sing it clean no problem. And I've learned how to get distortion from watching your other videos, but combining the two is the tricky part.

What a lot of singers don't realize is that recording your voice is a lot different than singing normally, and it often sounds terrible. Here's how to fix that.
