Hi creatives! Ready to start adding some riffs and runs to your songs but struggling to actually sing them? These flourishes are so fun to add as you're singing, but it may take practice to start adding them and perfecting them. It helps to do exercises that build vocal agility! So let's try one! Be sure to go at your own pace and increase the speed when you're ready. I start on the A below middle C. Listen in and sing along!

DISCLAIMER: Please stop singing if you experience any pain/discomfort and seek medical attention.
