Shownotes
Different genres of music make different demands on the voice. But no matter what style, era, or canon you’re singing from, communicating the emotional energy of the song to your audience is all about connecting to yourself. It requires grounding your voice in your own ease and comfort (even though the physical act of singing can feel scary both physically and emotionally). There are basic practices that will help you to get the most out of your whole body instrument, and to create the impact you want in your listener. Here is my take on the things you can expect from different genres writ large, and the universal skills you can rely on to bring any song to life.
