It’s crazy the number of times I’ve worked with or heard of people who want to know how to get gigs, placements, better voices, etc. but don’t want to actually work for it or do the necessary things to obtain the “reward.”
They want to hear about the prize and seem to go deaf when it comes to hearing what is needed to earn it. Maybe it’s the unknowns that create the stops, the fear of what will be encountered along the way, or just the unwillingness to confront the work. Whatever it may be, the truth is, it can be as simple as learning from those ahead of you that you admire and trust and just follow the steps.
Yes, you need to be authentic, and yes you will discover your own style of the walk but why go reinventing the wheel (or better yet waiting for someone to come pick you up that seems to have taken a wrong turn).
So, to all of you staring at the prize, start moving. It may take a week, a month, a year, or years but you will eventually obtain it!
When it comes to obtaining the vocal ability of a pro, we have already paved the path for you and are handing you the map!
