120 | Press Record Anyway: How Recording Yourself Can Improve Your Singing

from Singer Songwriter | How to Write a Song, Make Music, Song Lyrics, Music Theory, Singing Lessons · host Lainey Prendeville Crawford - Vocal Coach, Singer, Songwriter, Songwriting Coach

What if one of the simplest ways to improve your singing is to start pressing record? I practiced recording myself this week, and the experience gave me a valuable reality check about where I am as a singer and musician—and what I need to work on next. When you're inside the music, it's easy to miss things like breath support, tempo, phrasing, tension, or other habits. Listening back gives you an outside perspective and turns vague feelings of "I need to get better" into specific information you can actually use in your practice. I'll also talk about the difference between healthy musicianship and perfectionism. Wanting to sing and record well isn't the problem. The problem is believing you have to be perfect before you're allowed to press record. Recording yourself doesn't have to be about creating something you're ready to share. Sometimes it's simply a practice tool: record, listen, notice, learn, and try again. If you've been hesitant to hear your own singing voice on a recording, consider this your invitation to press record anyway. <3 Lainey Next Steps: Join the Newsletter: reawakenyourvoice.com/insider Visit the Website: reawakenyourvoice.com Write Me: [email protected]
