If you know me at all, you’ve probably heard me say that you don’t have to get louder to sing high with power. But singer Brandi took this to a while other level - Girl’s got PIPES! She almost blew me away with all that power and volume in our coaching session. Controlling the volume in these high notes is the key to longevity and stamina in your voice. Brandi and I explored how to stay in a chest dominant tone without overdoing it, pace the song for long-term stamina, and sing high notes without strain. Along the way, she talked about learning to express her full artistry—without burning out her voice in the process.In this conversation, we break down why pitch issues happen, how long it actually takes to improve, what to do if you’ve been told (or told yourself) that you “just can’t sing” and how important pitch really is (spoiler - it’s not the end all, be all!). If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re hopeless or if your ear is just “bad,” this episode might change everything.
