Step 1… Sing Like You Speak
phrase sing like you speak is thrown around a lot in the singing community, but what does it really mean?
It all starts with listening. Listening to other singers lets us ask: “Is this artist augmenting their voice in an unnatural way?” “Are they over-brightening or over-darkening their tone?” “Are they changing their vocal tone to fit a particular style?” When we ask these questions, we can then flip the script: “Am I augmenting my vocal tone in an unnatural way?”
Once a student realizes they don’t have to augment their authentic speaking voice to sing, the fun begins. Their greatest weapon isn’t impersonating someone else’s artistry, but discovering their own authentic sound built from the natural tone color and quality of their voice.
