Studio Sessions: Why Singing At 80% Should Be Your New 100% With Rachel Beasley
Rachel’s a trained singer with years of experience—but when it came to high notes, she was still working too hard. Her volume would creep from 30% to 90% before the chorus even hit, leaving her voice tired and out of room to grow. We focused on lowering effort, reducing breath pressure, and unlocking her mix with targeted “puffer fish” and “Sisi” exercises. Once she stopped over-squeezing, her voice became clearer, mixier, yet still plenty powerful—even at 80% volume. The big shift? Less tension, more airflow, and no “yelly” tone.
Singing, Sailing & Staying Sane: Life as a Traveling Performer With Sam Bello
What’s it really like performing around the world as a full-time singer and actor? Sam Bello opens up about life on the road—from national tours to performing on cruise ships across the Middle East, Europe, and the Caribbean. We talk about how she balances the vocal demands of doing 8 shows a week, how she recovers between contracts, and what it’s like to perform on a stage that moves thanks to the waves of the ocean. We dive into what it’s like to build a performing career while constantly on the move, how to stay healthy and consistent on the road, and why Sam is finally looking to slow down and settle into New York theatre.
