There’s been an amazing response to my videos on vocal technique. But it’s hard to continue doing the in depth, 3 part, vids that I’ve been doing. So I decided to start doing “Quick Tips.” Videos that last 5min or less, that address the common vocal issues that you guys email me about.

This vid deals with nasality in the voice. The same principles that apply in this vid for alleviating nasality also apply to developing a healthy belt voice sound.
