Are you looking for an easy-to-follow warmup to strengthen your voice? I’m Camille with 30 day singer, sharing my favorite warmups to build strength across your range. 

Let’s first engage our abdominals with a pulsing hiss, into a semi-closed exercise like a lip trill. If the lip trill doesn’t work well for you, please use a sustained VV, ZZ, BB, MM, NN or NG. The goal is to keep your low abs engaged and your ribcage lifted, all the way through the end of the exercise. Keep your upper belly soft and relaxed, though - we don’t want the solar plexus hardening or crunching inward.

The fact is: most people can sing at some level. But not everyone sounds like a natural, polished singer. What sets those singers apart, aside from technical skill and experience? For me, it all comes down to style. And while the mechanics of singing are crucial, we can’t neglect stylization!

I’m Camille, singer & voice teacher with 30 Day Singer and this is How To Sing: Part 5 - Exercising Your Full Range

I’m Camille, singer & voice teacher with 30 day singer, and this is How To Sing - Part 3: Pairing Breath With Sound. You already know how to breathe, and you can’t speak or sing without breath - so why do we need to learn about breathing at all?

Hi I’m Abram with 30 Day Singer and this lesson is all about proper mic technique for beginning singers.

At some point as a singer you will probably sing with a microphone either on a stand or held in your hand. This is usually a dynamic microphone that has a cone like this then it is a dynamic microphone. Condenser mics pick up a larger area and so there is generally less technique required for this. 

Hi, I’m Abram from 30 Day Singer and I’ve designed this lesson to help you stop sounding like a beginner and start sounding like a pro. 

One of the biggest differences between a pro and a beginning singer is the use of resonance and vowel modification. When we know how to adjust the shape of our vowels we are able to get a bright and ringing sound from our voice. It's what a lot of people attribute to a trained singer compared to a beginner.

Hi, I’m Abram from 30daysinger and here is an exercise flow to help you find your singing voice.

I’ll quickly describe the exercise, demonstrate, and then repeat for you to try it out as well. If you are a lower voiced singer try matching my pitch. If you are a higher voiced singer try matching my voice an octave higher. You might be doing this naturally. The most important thing is to find a natural and comfortable part of your range to start with.
