Most of the vocalists I work with come to me at a point where they are really struggling with something. Many of them tell me of the months and even years of strain, cracking and vocal fatigue that they have fought against. Some have turned down work, others have taken extensive amounts of time off from singing and others have quit entirely. Most of them are worried and frustrated, and very few of them have ever sought help from a vocal coach
It is my personal mission to 'get' every singer that I work with. When someone feels listened to and understood they are more able to be creative, take risks and make valuable mistakes. This in turn helps me to understand what they really need from me, and the direction that they want their voice to go in.
I wrote this blog article for my pals at The Naked Vocalist a couple of years ago, and I still get asked about it now. With the New Year and lots of fresh starts on the horizon, it really feels like the right time to share it again
