Hi, I've been studying a load of singers of late and it's really fascinating checking out the variety of techniques they use during songs to pull off certain tones and textures. I like Jorja Smith as she has that soulful sound but changes to a twang of Amy Winehouse which is really interesting in a lot of ways.
I'm gigging in Tottenham next week - Yay.

Tone
This singing thing is doing my head in!
I recorded some live takes of a song about Robin Williams and Chris Cornell yesterday and actually thought it was pretty good. I then showed it to a couple of my friends and they subsequently asked me whether or not I liked the tone of my voice. Now, firstly I thought to myself WTF and that I can't control that aspect of my voice but then after a while I thought about the question and tried to get a mellower tone and I messed around with larynx position, resonators and voice placement. And...... I think it's happening... argh... it's really exciting and I'm looking forward to rediscovering my songs with the warmer tone.
