600 Second Singing Ep.6 – Are Your Vocal Exercises Helping or Hurting Your Singing?

It's a common thing right? Scales go well, songs go, umm, not so well.

600 Second Singing Ep.4 - Tongue Tension Helpers (part 1 of 507)

Admittedly, these tongue strategies might be No’s 1 and 2 of 507 because there are so many way in which you can stop that tongue from being a muscular annoyance in your singing. You don’t have to do them all mind! It’s more due to the fact that the singing world are extremely creative! Plus, the root cause of tension is different from one singer to the next.

600 Second Singing Ep.3 - Exercises To Prepare You For A Massive/Better Range

This podcast is not a quick fix for high notes. The truth about quick fixes is that they only really work when there are parts of your voice that are present already. Vocal registers being one of them. So, high notes are not going to be easy if you haven't really explored your falsetto at all, yet so many singers want to know how to skip this detail. Well, you can’t. At least not without some external and unhelpful muscle getting involved, which will burn you in the long run.

It doesn't matter if you're beginner or professional. Going back to basics is a great thing for any voice, so join us for the range groundwork.
