Vocal Tip: Find Your Own Style

It’s not easy to find your own voice.  That too takes time.  Here are a few ways to start:

1) Copy all your favorites.  If you copy just one, you’ll end up being a copy cat.  If you copy all, people will say, you sound a little like so and so and kind of like so-and-so.  That’s a good thing.

2) Listen to yourself sing.  Most of my students, even though I encourage it, don’t listen to themselves often enough.  Listen to yourself and pick things in your voice you like.  Then try to use those favorite nuances a little more.

3) Sing whatever song a hundred times.  Each time you sing it, it will change a little more.  Become a little more your own.
