Hey singer! You've been at this whole 'singing thing' for a while, right?
Stuck on the YouTube loop of video-after-video-after-video watching voice coaches following their dreams... but ultimately not actually helping you to reach yours.
Buying courses that sure seem promise a lot, but always under deliver.
Taking weekly singing lessons and drilling lip trills and major scales over and over and over again - and always ending up struggling the same way you always have when you sing songs, right?
I hear you - I've been exactly where you are.
At the mercy of those ruthless coaches who seem to hold all the cards, hold all the power - and charge by the minute for just a few measly seconds of their time.
And they still really can't answer your questions, like these ones I always used to ask:
Q. What IS mixed voice anyway?
A. When you balance the CT muscle below the larynx and the TA muscles within the vocal folds - the two have an 'antagonistic' relationship which allows you to sing with the depth of chest voice while enjoying the range of head voice - a "mix" of your registers
Q. What IS vowel modification?
A. Vowel modification has little to do with how you pronounce your vowels, and everything to do with how you alter your resonant space to ring with the overtone of your harmonics. The key to effective vowel modification, and increasing your range, is to learn the right size, shape and setup of each vowel in each register of the voice - 'modifying' each vowel for peak quality in your resonance.
Q. Why can't I sing an A4?
A. Your vowel is most likely too wide, and your vocal folds are either too loose, or too thick to vibrate at the speed plus depth to facilitate that quality overtone we just talked about. The key here is to narrow your vowel from your second break up, while leveraging your muscular balance using the CT muscle from the middle of your voice up.
As you can see, the anatomy of what is ACTUALLY going on in your voice is an intrinsic part of actually learning HOW to sing better - not just talking about it or doing something just because "you have to". The why, how, where and when is often the missing key to singers like you that have been working their ass of for months, even years - and getting the same results over and over again.
As you've seen in the videos of my students nailing their goals and singing in the way they had only ever dreamed of prior to working with me, and as you've seen in my own singing too - singing is physically EASY to do when you get the vowel, foundation and setup correct.
I bet you're sick of feeling like you're dragging a bag of bricks up a staircase every time you sing, right?
I know I was.
So I did something about it.
Aren't you ready to make a serious change in your singing too?
