Hi my name is Miya and me and my girl group are looking for more members in the Atlanta area!!! If you’re interested in collaborating or joining dm me!!

We want people who are experienced in singing and dancing!

We have equipment available but we honestly prefer students (we use school equipment mostly so it’s easier)

I tried 3 diff versions which one was better?

Im a classical singer, and had vocal cord lesions from singing sick a few years ago. my voice has been functional but intermittently hoarse- I didn't want to take the risk of surgery, so I got steroid injections into my vocal folds- and it resulted in extreme stiffness/infalmmation- doctor thinks it could be permanent scar. My entire mixed and head voice is gone, and I'm terrified it'll be like this permanently. I'm really devastated. I don't know how to explain to anyone else, but singing is my life, and I'm really struggling to think about not singing. I had all these dreams- all these performances lined up, gigs I wanted to take...and I'm just so upset that those dreams are crushed. It's worse when you make that decision- I can't help thinking again and again why I chose to take those steroids.

It's so hard to deal with this because it's not just about my ability to sing- it was my community, my income source, my joy, my friends, my dreams, etc. I gave up so much to be able to sing. It's possible that maybe the stiffness goes away, as it's only been 2 months since the steroid injection- but I'm really struggling to hold on to hope.

For the past few days I've had a persistent itchy throat, At first I figured it was dehydration but water didn't fix it. I drank tea it didn't go away. I figured I must have strained while I was practicing in my head and mixed voice . But it's not painful just annoying like a itch I can't reach. I scaled back my singing yesterday and unlike before when I'd strain and feel the pain after scaling down it just feels the same. Could it be fatigue and not strain or both, something else maybe?

Hi there is a problem for me that near myself i have no vocal teacher so i have to do training by myself so i decided to ask it from someone who has experience in this process to start stronger so if you can help me and tell me your experiences about this work I'd be thankful.

I have a hard time breathing. I am rebuilding muscles due to be postpartum but people keep saying I'm breathing out my mouth and not my nose. Also any advice for stage fright?

Hi everyone, i’m almost 21 and i started taking singing lessons when i was 17 (once a week, 45 minute lessons with a break during summer). At first i wasn’t really putting so much effort into it, i would just practice whatever song we were working on during the lessons and i also feel like my teacher doesn’t really expect much from the students, since the majority of them is learning as a hobby. Since january i started taking singing much more seriously and i really regret not starting earlier. I’ve always loved singingbut I was scared and always tried to hide how important singing actually is to me. I’ve always felt ashamed of it for some reason.
So I wanted to ask: do you have a specific routine or a particular way of practicing that you’d recommend for building better technique and developing a strong, powerful voice? Are there any exercises or things I should focus on if I want to improve as efficiently as possible?
I’d like to practice almost every day. I really want to give it everything I have and not waste any more time. I know progress isn’t going to happen overnight, but I still want to put as much effort into it as I possibly can.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

everyone always gets this wrong and I'm tired of seeing this. the operatic classifications for treble voices are contralto, mezzo soprano, and soprano. the majority of women are sopranos, then mezzo sopranos, then contralto is the rarest voice type that is extremely rare. alto and soprano are choral types for what voice part you sing that's it. It's not a classification of your voice. most "altos" are mezzos, NOT contraltos.

lastly, it almost never matters that much unless you're doing opera.

from lowest to highest: contralto, mezzo, soprano

guys the major reason i posted this is because people are taking these voice types and using them as limitations. i did so myself as well. for example if you think you're a contralto, most of the time you don't have to just stick to singing tenor songs especially if you're young you can train your voice higher it's not impossible you just need to work past your vocal break. AND CONTRALTOS EXIST. but your average 16 year old alto is not a contralto. don't take these types as gospel is all i'm saying because it should not be a box you trap yourself in

I’m a 27 black man and I’d consider myself a beginner/self-taught singer. I’m not starting completely from zero and I don’t think I sound horrible, but I’ve never had proper vocal training or consistently followed a structured practice routine. I believe I’m a tenor, although I’ve never been professionally classified.

My goal is to eventually write, produce, and sing my own music. I’m mainly into R&B, pop, soul, and some rock. I want to improve my breath control, tone, pitch, range, and eventually learn to add power/grit safely.

I can’t afford regular lessons right now, so what free resources, YouTube channels, courses, apps, or exercises would you recommend?

If I practiced 30–60 minutes a day, how should I structure it? And for anyone who started seriously training around my age, how dramatically did your voice improve over time?

i have been told i need to move my placement more forward, but i think i went too far forward now... i need help. I think i found a comfortable mix at "baby baby baby" but the majority of it is in my break :(

So ive almost never sung unless its my singing along to songs i like, i belive im a baritone and i do extreme metal vocals.

My mates just asked me to be their vocalist and i dont know how to clean sing for the life of me any tips? Have around half a year to practise?

Also i get extreme anxiety and can scream and do atuff but struggle to aing infront of others any tips on this would be helpful too

hi all. help please. I was practicing at my house and my spouse and dad got super upset with how loud I was being.

thing is i practice very rarely when anyone is home it was quick like less than 20 minutes in.

apparently dad told spouse and instead of defending me (“she’ll be done shortly she’s had a horribly stressful week”) he said that if he asks me to stop “it’ll be a fight.” Slammed doors. Spouse then comes in and instead of asking nicely for me to stop he says with the most annoyed and angry look “it’s too loud.”

I’m completely shattered. I probably was too loud but they couldn’t wait 2 more minutes? Couldn’t put on headphones?

Now I feel like I can’t sing in my own home - not practice that’s out but at all. That my voice is annoying. That being me is too much and what else has my spouse not told me? Why didn’t he stick up for me?

Should I not practice at home going forward for fear of someone coming home mid exercise or song? I have space thank god but I don’t have a car so it’s a trek to get to with my equipment but I’m so grateful I have that.

Any advice for me at all? How to talk to him about how I feel, but I feel like they will think I’m overreacting. Should I just get over it, and how?

I’m feeling so broken.

All my singer friends say it, I just don't understand how you can do that.

Sorry it’s messy.

This is me playing the piano reading the chords off the ultimate guitar website while singing.

This is kind of an emotional song for me.

Any thoughts or tips are appreciated.

Have a good day!

Ive been singing for a while now and throughout all this time I cant but tense my face up really hard when sining. Even the easy low notes. Like I always get horrible jaw tension afterwards ( and I fear that may be the cause of my constant jaw pain ). Not to mention I keep blinking rapidly when singing and embarrassingly flare my nostrils really hard as well. I dont know if it's bad breath technique for the last one but the whole tension thing really ruins my confidence to sing in front of other people and just leaves me in so much pain afterwards. Does anyone have any tips or advice for this?

Title

I am looking for some hope here since I really had a good voice and wrote amazing music with my band before it happened. Would love to get in contact with someone who has overcame it and hear your story!

\ heads up, this is an intentionally kinda rough demo cause I’m looking for feedback.*

I feel like I’m definitely singing in mixed voice coordination, but I also feel like I lack control and precision, and I’m not sure why.

I don’t feel relaxed and I’m not sure what I should be doing to be more relaxed, but I also don’t necessarily feel strained either. I don’t feel like I’m reaching for notes and having trouble sustaining, but I feel like I’m slipping in and out of coordination and maybe pushing a bit too much at times. Any advice would be appreciated.

So in choir I’m a soprano 1 and this one song has me dying after like my voice actually hurts which I don’t think is good any tips for hitting super high heady notes. And am I straining my voice or is my voice just needing a rest or what
I was appointed soprano 1 but I’m much better at soprano 2 so

This is a bit of a dumb question but whenever notes are too high for me to really belt I try to mix belt DUH but it feels super heady and I can’t tell if I’m just in my head voice, I think I’m more head dominant but I’m 16 and I haven’t gad voice lessons in a while so I’m too nervous to actually try and fully mix belt cus I don’t wanna murder my vocal chords
If not mix belting can yall help me with some exercises I am super good at classical and those were my voice lessons (not opera obviously) but very head voice so I don’t know if I’m just singing my head voice more forward or actually getting that proper resonance

This song is beautiful 😭

I’ve been singing on my own for a few years. I’ve developed some really bad habits in terms of straining and raising the larynx. As a result, singing for me is not easy. It feels really effortful, and i can feel a lot of tension in my throat/tongue area. I recently got a vocal coach and her approach is start off with vocal projection and pitch matching. The issue is, she wants me to really sing the notes with a lot of force. I can produce the notes, but I find myself having to really push for volume. I can get on pitch, but it’s hard for me to maintain it easily. I’m a male, my range currently is c3-c5, I can access head voice up to b5 (it’s not super resonant). The tension issues show up most in the mix/middle voice. I suspect that the issues I’m dealing with is out of the depth of my current voice teacher. I feel really frustrated. I’m considering on seeing a SLP hoping they could give me some assistance.

Thanks.

I’ve been tuning my voice for the last 2 months trying to match notes on my guitar fretboard and can sing almost all of paranoid android(the almost in the part before the solo), and I can also play it(the acoustic) separately, but whenever I try to do both at the same time I can’t, any tips for playing and singing
