The #1 tool that's helped ALL of my students more than anything else isn't what you think. Here's why.

Hi guys! Just wanted to share some stuff, am still working on distortion, been like 2 years now, i hurt myself many times, and i wish i could just go to a vocal coach, draven and the whole team are just amaizing, it s better to pay and it s not risky investement,

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.

The one thing most singers are missing in their music is passion; you CAN'T sing it just like in the recording. Here's why.

If you tend toward a basic "choir boy" / naive head voice like me, you need all the tone help you can get. With these tricks I find resonant spots everywhere. #1 this is easy. Turn your head to the 1 o'clock or 11 o'clock position, chin a little lifted. The formant shift especially on high notes is quite tasty. I've seen performers do this in live shows a number of times. #2 coordination building. Ever make funny sounds or impersonate characters with odd voices? I learned to mimic the voice of characters like Stitch from "Lilo & Stitch" or Meatwad from "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" - I think its a narrowing of the vocal tract at the back of the tongue (?), I feel it way in the back just above the glottis. Overdoing it sounds doofy/quacky, but ~25-50% adds a nice layer of brass to most vowels, and it pairs great with cry mode to make high note access easier. Balance is key! #3 more coordination and some strength building. Soft palate position is a HUGE tone knob, as I'm sure a lot of you have discovered. Some coaches train to keep the soft palate closed all the time, which seems to help volume level for no-mic performance, but the nasal cavity is an AMAZING resonator when used carefully. Sometimes I have to really push my soft palate open (edging vowels especially), and its easy to get too nasal at lower pitches. But a lot like the cartoon-character throat narrowing trick: a little does a lot, balance is key, and it stacks great with cry mode. I also find soft palate opening to invite a bit more wind at the expense of more strength in the core and throat to keep things stable.
