Hi. :)
So today is lesson time again!
Feeling a lot better after my lesson...
We started off with the usual breathing exercises and vocal warm-ups, tried some screaming (the lower ones, not the high pitched ones) and I've struggled a little from this. It's a hard technique trying to add distortion to your tone... so I'm trying to master that without my throat getting tickly!
I was given a few CD's when I 1st started having lessons for vocal warm-ups so we went back to them for a bit and I can certainly tell after a few months of not doing them how much I've improved!
We finished the lesson off with a run through of "Run by Snow Patrol" which went well. My task for next lesson (in 2 weeks) is to find some more songs for my Grade 2 exam (think I need about 4) and start adding my own spin to the Run track.
It's all a slow process but I'm making steady progress... not quite reading to record but gradually getting there. :)
Lastly, after a bit of browsing... I've come across a band called Steelheart - the singer is incredible!
It was very interesting reading about them - they're a hair metal band and during a concert in 1992 the lead singer suffered serious head injuries, a broken jaw and a broken nose after he attempted a climb a tower on stage which wasn't securely fitted. He's made a comeback a good few years later but the music style has changed slightly. Interesting!
I've ordered an album of there's anyway, check them out! :)
Also, Rhydian has a new album coming out this March so check that out too! :)
Love x
