The best way to learn how to get better at singing is simply to make sure you do your vocal warm ups. The voice is a delicate instrument, and without proper warmup, there's the possibility of damage occurring. In order to avoid that, and to ensure your voice is in the besr shape possible, let's look at 3 easy vocal warmups!

Being a singer is amazing: you have an instrument that literally no one else on the planet has. And it’s also frustrating: that instrument is a part of your body, meaning it changes due to things like hydration, allergies, illness, and fatigue. I’m Camille van Niekerk, singer & teacher with 30 Day Singer, and here are 4 ways to take care of your voice. 

I’ve been singing for as long as I can remember. I don’t remember being taught how to match pitch or copy a melody. But there are so many skills I do remember learning, and I strive always to put myself in my student’s shoes as I’m teaching them a new skill. These are the 4 things I wish I knew when learning how to sing. 

Most of us want a smooth, pleasant tone when we sing. But what can we practically do to get it? This lesson will walk you through a few concrete steps to achieve a smoother tone when you sing!

I'm Abram with 30 Day Singer and today we are going to go over some tips and exercises that will help you sing Pop music with better style. Pop music is constantly changing and the best way to stay in style is to listen to more pop music and experiment with your voice. As with any skill, the more you do it, the easier and more efficient it becomes!

Remember that in addition to these techniques, your best teacher is your own ear! Singing along with great country singers and imitating their tone or pronunciation is a great way to learn. We don’t want to end up with an exact imitation of another singer's voice, but rather, we want to capture the style and tone, while still sounding like you - just the country version!
