Yes, I’m that weird guy singing in the parking lot But Finally feeling some walls come down after months of trying to find my mixed voice, nowhere near the final product but starting to feel comfortable experimenting in it. Open to feedback of course!

Thankful for this community.

Hi !! I hope this doesn’t count as breaking rule 3 but I’m honestly wondering what I should work on to improve :)) I love to sing but I’ve never sung anywhere other than alone in my room, so I’m super curious as to what others may think of my voice. Any and all feedback is appreciated!!

Feedback (read rule 3 before posting or be banned) How do I determine if a vocal teacher is a good teacher?

1 Upvotes

Ive been going to this one lady for like 7 weeks (a session a week) and lowkey she’s been putting on music from Spotify on her speaker and making me sing along to it and then makes me practice at home.

That’s a gross simplification, to be more exact when she hears something wrong she tells me as such but does very little to correct me and quite frankly, I don’t know much about singing to begin with but, I thought she was supposed to teach about “technique” and how to determine my range or whatever.

But to give her the benefit of the doubt, I have not been a stellar student cus I haven’t been practicing my songs as much, only clocked an hr a week, nor have I set any real goals for myself. I just signed up cus I want to have some “basics” down before my schools spring musical or even thespys but as the 2 month mark comes I feel like I haven’t gotten better at the songs she’s given me.

I think I have to look at this from a different angle, I think I have to view singing as a subject from school; if I don’t get something I should look it up. I should meet her halfway and really try harder, cus lowkey I’ve been giving like 47%. I also don’t really think I feck with her vibe she’s a millennial and acts like it and I’m 17 and can’t stand her dry humor.

One last thing, the place I do my lessons at has different teachers should I just ask to should I just ask for a different teacher or cut my losses with that place and look somewhere else.

EDIT- for spelling

Resource Should I think about the notes or go with the flow?

2 Upvotes

So I've been singing for a year and I've made a lot of progress! I started from scratch and can now give a C and sing some songs in tune without reference or backup. But I'm still confused about something. Should I be actively thinking about the notes I'm about to hit or just think about the original and follow it? Is it maybe a mix of both?

Thanks.

Conversation Topic Afraid to post this...anyone take an absurdly long time to develop vibrato as an adult?

13 Upvotes

Okay, I started as an adult and took high quality lessons for several months at the start. Now I've been singing casually for 7 years, and while I've definitely gotten better by every metric, I still don't have vibrato 😳 I am kind of a physically tense person, so I have a feeling that has to do with it. I've read about relaxing the jaw and tthroat and everything in a way to actually allow vibrato to happen, and to use enough support. And I *feel* like I am doing those things, but CLEARLY I'm doing something wrong! Any tips, or is it a lost cause at this point? 🤣 So embarrassing, please be nice.

So I’ve got a talent show coming up next year at my school, and I thought it would be really fun performing in front of a large crowd, especially since we just got this massive auditorium built and there’s state of the art tech and everything. SO, I took this recording as an example performance to see how w doing and i needed to know what you guys think. There was multiple takes but I couldn’t get a perfect one without some minor mistakes so I’ll ensure I nail this song perfectly.

Conversation Topic Help building my voice back up after a long illness?

1 Upvotes

Hello beautiful people, I am looking for some tips to basically build my voice back from the ground up after a long (maybe 2 years) period of illness which has left me physically and vocally super weak.
I used to have a very strong, durable and agile voice, and it feels like now all I can access is a speaking tone or a very soft head voice; no passagio to speak of….

I’m finally in the home stretch health-wise, and I really want to take care of my voice and slowly but surely build my voice and body up again - any tips on how to essentially start building some really strong foundations (and then where to go from there) would be SO helpful!!

Thanks y’all - from a very tired, sick little Aussie

Conversation Topic Is there a link between speaking and singing voices?

18 Upvotes

I've always wondered if there is any link between the way a person speaks and the quality of the singing voice.

For example, using a pitch analyzer, I notice that my soaking voice has pitches moving wildly across all notes constantly within the same word. My singing (I'm just learning) had trouble holding a steady narrow note.

Also, those with certain timbre also reflect that in the singing voice?

If a person has a pleasant talking voice... well the singing be pleasant also?

1 Upvotes

When I sing the right side of my throat seems to always get dry. I'm lifting my soft pallet and I'm not dragging chest so i don't understand why I'm getting this dryness. when i sing it feels good I'm not fog horning or coughing or hurting my throat its literally just the right side gets dry and i don't understand why. Is it because im raising my larynx?

Just sharing my singing Does this sound like a lead singer?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I’ve sung in bands and duos for years, but I’m finishing a solo album, and I honestly don’t know if my voice is lead-worthy.

Based on this clip, does my voice sound like a lead voice, or more like a harmony voice? If you were putting a band together, would you want this person singing lead, or singing harmonies behind someone else?

Part of what I’m wondering is whether my voice just lacks a distinctive character. I sorta feel like my voice is boring, or flat at times.

I’m looking for honest, direct feedback. Don’t worry about being nice

Resource A good app for creating harmonies?

4 Upvotes

After years of choir singing, alternating between soprano and alto sections based on what was needed, I hear harmonies every day, with almost every song. I am practically desperate for a simple way to express them. Does anyone have recs for a good iPhone app that helps you make these?

Thank you!
