From Singer To Artist

Studio Session: Polishing An Original Song with Doug Haag


Listen Later

Doug never set out to become a singer. He started on drums, picked up guitar to process emotions, and wrote songs just for himself—quietly, late at night, when no one could hear. But eventually, something shifted. It started to feel selfish not to share.

We explored how to release vocal tension, how tongue placement can subtly affect tone, and even making tweaks to the lyrics to make them more singable. Doug brought in an original song—one that’s deeply personal—and we focused on staying connected to the message, not just the notes.

It was a reminder that you don’t need perfection to move people. You just need to mean it.
