Hey guys, welcome back again to Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy, where the proof is in the singing!
I thought it would be really cool to do some more stuff on mixed voice. There’s a lot
of talk about mixed voice, so I chose an old Chaka Khan piece, actually the band, it’s
Rufus, and the song's called Tell Me Something Good. We’ll do it first, talk about it after,
like we always do. It goes like this.
Okay. What’s really cool about this, is that I’m, again, I’m not, I don’t sing
in her range… But Chaka was really great at a lot of mixed voice stuff. So what you
find, Tell Me Something Good, yeah, yeah… There’s that part, but “Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaahhh!”
… Getting in and out of the passaggio, where you don’t hear the break, and you can actually
take your chest voice, and you can grow your chest voice to make it sound like your head
voice, and fuse those things together, to get in and out of a lot of kind of sexy, cool,
sensitive, and even airy sort of sound. So, it’s not just to build up a belting sound.
Far from it. It’s actually just to build a good strong, one long, powerful range, one
long, powerful register, so that you can sing in any timbre, where it’s nice and airy
like this, or whether it’s a big belting rock thing, or what ever it is you want to do.
So, I’ve got all this information, and all these tutorials in my course called
How To Sing Better Than Anyone Else. You can go to Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy dot com to check
that out. Come join my singers forums. We’ve got over 6000 members, almost 7000 now, it’s
really cool. It’s grown like a weed. And we have eight moderators and a ton of great
students in there answering a lot of questions and fielding a lot of very, very tough questions
regarding TRUE information for singing. So, anyway, thank you for joining me.
Until next time. Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy. Peace. Out.
