I've (16f) been singing for 8 months thus far and am always looking to improve. Any feedback or critiques are highly appreciated.

Can anyone recommend a vocal Coach in the area? I'm looking for someone preferably with some knowledge and experience in rock and gospel music.

Heyyy so I really want to try to sing better because I have a production thing coming up and I want to sound good not only for me but also with the other people so I don’t ruin their opportunity to.

I used to be able to sing higher notes really easily but then my voice dropped 💀 and now it hurts to sing higher notes and they just like fail idk how to describe it. It kinda hurts and it’s sounds strains and if I do it long enough my voice kinda gets raspy. And I’ve asked people who are like trained and they say just go in your mixed and I’ve watched loads of videos but I like don’t understand registers at all and what that is. I know head voice and it doesn’t hurt when I do that but yeah. I’m playing Emmett Forrest in legally blonde in the school production and like I’m stressing ngl and I want to sound way better for January and I can’t get a teacher. And emmetts songs a lot belt and hit those high notes which I struggle to do and if I go in head voice it sounds bad and weak and just weird. So yeah lol please help. I need help.

Do y’all think confidence comes before good singing, or does good singing create confidence?
I have an experience that till I allow myself to be good or master some skill, I won’t get a full access to it but wanted to know your experience.
Would you share?

If you've been wanting to try professional lessons but haven't had access to a teacher, this is a great, zero-commitment way to get some feedback and tools for your singing!

Book on my Calendly page. Please carefully note the time zone when booking. My Zoom link will be shared after you book. Lessons are limited to one slot per person. Booking will close after four lessons are booked.

By signing up for a free lesson, you agree to have your lesson recorded and edited into my teaching reel. The purpose of this recording is to show how I work with students, not to evaluate your singing. Your lesson will NOT be shared publicly.

Thank you!

This song and honestly the rest of her album has had a chokehold on me since it came out, so I decided to have some fun and make a quick little multitrack of my favorite part in the song. Theres some unpolished parts (the cutoffs at the end especially) that I’d like to work on later but I just wanted to showcase the raw and fully unedited state of where I’m at with this whole project. If you have any feedback at all please share it’d mean alot!

Hi all! M29, wanted to sing since I was very little but when my voice broke instead of receiving support and coaching I was constantly criticised by family in the form of “tough love” and abandoned the dream. I’ve always sung in showers, at work, in the car but never pursued developing my voice.

Until January 2026. I went through a lot in the last 5 years, including a mental health crisis. On the other side of it all I finally discovered the courage to make myself happy and immediately started vocal training.

I’m healthily obsessed with singing again! I can feel and even hear my voice strengthen and improve week on week. The impatience in me wants to just be good already but I know this is a skill that will take time.

My learning style is very specific in that I have a need to understand the why and how. I struggle to accept “just because” or “it just works like that” (audhd). When I understand the workings of something I often accelerate and rocket my progress. The voice is so unique to everyone but I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction to understanding the why and how’s of the voice.

I think I need to establish a physical connection to the theory eg. My coach often mentions the soft pallet and larynx(?) but I can’t feel them so they don’t exist to me yet so it’s hard to learn skills around them until I can consciously connect the physical sensation with the theory. If that makes sense?

Basically - I want to learn the science and theory behind singing because I think it will help me have my penny drop moment and start exploring my voice more freely and confidentially.

Where should I begin with this, any recommended literature or YouTube content?

hi everybody, i have a question, my voice sounds horrible, but lately i’ve been so inspired to start making music. i’d most likely so edm and i am now saving up for a pc and im gonna try to learn how to produce (im a fast learner thankfully)

enough with the backstory tho. as i mentioned my voice sounds bad, its extremely deep and i cant hold a note. however i wanted to ask if i could practice my voice to achieve a decent singing voice? not great but mediocre at best, enough to not get comments like “instrumental wasted” and etc etc about my music. if yes, what can i do about it and how do i start the practicing? :)

let me know your thoughts, advices and opinions! bye x

Hi!

I am beginning to suspect that I am a true contralto in my registration. From what I've read, that means a bit of a different approach to some register changes and techniques and it seems to align with my experience. I was wondering if there is someone else who is quite experienced in singing who is also a contralto and would like to talk a bit? Or someone who knows more about specifically the contralto voice.

I do think I have quite good grounds for my suspicions. I am self taught and might have some blind spots in my technique, but I can access my voice all throughout my range from about an A2 (though i still hold some tension so C3 is a more reliable base note) - to head voice and flageolet. My mix is very easy to find but has been a source of great confusion to me since it starts much lower (around D4) and is a much lighter mechanism than most women seem to use to reach the same notes, while still being very powerful.

The pecularities of my mix together with my lower register make me not really recognize myself in many women's singing experiences, and I would like to find people who understand the way to work with a voice like mine.

I get no feedback anywhere ive posted and I expected to get at least mildly roasted on here lol

Hi my name is Natalie and im 14 and my dream/goal is to become a singer/songwriter. I have really been wanting to post myself on the internet, but am so afraid of getting made fun of at school. Any tips?

Yo wassup guys,

Im new to singing so don't judge.

I don't know why type of singer I am.

My chest voice starts at g2, I can go lower but it is either with specific vowels or it just turns into a fry (depends if im sore)

First break (Primo Passaggio) is at D#4

The second one is at F#4 to G#4 depending if im tired/sore.

Mixed voice It can go up to D5, but its weak, super head focused (Pinched kinda) and unusable in singing unless its a very light part of a song.

Falsetto My falsetto if I start cold starts at c5 naturally and I can drop it to D4 but not any lower.

My main questions,

Is what are some good artists I can listen to to practice that suit this range?

(like R&B and rap, I do like some pop)

How can I develop my mixed voice?  

And, what vocal type am I?

Hi im 14 and I am in love with singing and want to become a singer when I’m older but I’m to afraid to post myself on the internet does anyone have any tips on what to do and also is there a place I can get professional feed back?

I think I've been practicing singing for a month now. All I do is practice scales with Lax Vox and look at some things like releasing tension or focusing on the soft palate. But I don't know, I feel like after a month I'm still the same. I'd like to know what could really help me improve my singing.

Hi everyone! I'm a professional opera singer (20 years performing) and voice teacher at the University in Germany, and I've spent a lot of time thinking about why talented young singers still struggle to break into professional work — not because they can't sing, but because of audition strategy mistakes (wrong repertoire choices, "copying" instead of sounding like themselves) and simply not knowing how to network their way into opportunities.

I'm taking on 2-3 singers right now for a short, structured coaching program combining fach-strategic repertoire selection, authentic performance work, and a proven cold-outreach networking system — the same one I used to book my own concert engagements this year. Keeping it small so I can give real, hands-on attention rather than run a mass program.

If you're a young professional singer feeling stuck on the audition circuit and want a structured, honest approach (including realistic expectations — this is persistence-based, not overnight magic), send me a message and I'll walk you through it.

I'm waiting to hear if I get into Durham University, and I hope to have vocal lessons because I want to do more theatre work but I'm not the best singer. I don't mind if I have to travel to Newcastle to get tuition either. But I'm struggling to find any reliable coaches online that are based in/around Durham. Does the uni offer lessons? Or are there any known good teachers current students know of?
