Sing Every Day

I made an epiphany the other day when listening to a recording I did with a couple of companies. I hated my singing. 

It wasn't until I heard a recording from earlier in the year of myself that I figured out what was wrong.

I hadn't been practicing enough. The recording from earlier in the year was BOMB. 

But that was when I was practicing every day and in the heart of teaching people with my 21 Day Sing Every Day vocal program.

It was amazing to me how much those exercises mattered in my voice!

Having trouble practicing during covid? We all are! I am. My friends are. It's so hard. But you can do this! Let's use this time to our advantage! Come on! You can do this!

In this episode, I talk about the mentality of high notes. Some teachers think you should just turn off your brain and let the high notes go. That was too stressful for me, so I changed teachers and you'll hear the difference in this show!

Why is the [a] vowel so weird. Some teachers want it bright. Some want it dark? Well, in this episode I tell you well, and then I tell you how to sing the PERFECT [a] vowel!

If you're like me, you were told there are certain gigs to say "no" to, but which ones are those? How do you know? Who do you trust? Well... I think trust yourself, and push yourself!

I read an article back in college about why some people's vocal cords get tired, and some don't. For instance... how on earth is Steven Tyler still singing?! Well, I'll answer that here!

Today my 8 month old Aleksi joins as my original plan gets derailed and we talk about how to do your art when life distracts you!

First of all, I'm sorry the quality of this podcast is so crappy. I had to copy it from my instagram live post. Second, have you ever heard that your singing isn't "italianate" enough? I have and I think it's BS!

There's a trend in today's singing. Who can sing loudest or most exciting? But I think the most important thing in singing is beauty.
