"I was diagnosed years ago with a partially-paralyzed vocal cord and I’ve struggled with it for years and I have to train and do therapy every day and keep it in shape.
I came to Ron Anderson about a year and a half ago and my voice was shot. I hadn't toured in three years and I felt like my career was finished. I had been to many different voice teachers and the experience with Ron was quite different. I found Ron Anderson, and out of all the vocal coaches I’ve worked with over the years, it was night and day. He was very detailed as far as where to breathe from and what it should feel like, where the valves should be. Now, here I am a year and a half later, and I completed my first tour in four years. We did four months and it was a really great time out on the road.
Ron saved my career basically. He's a great teacher, He really is. He is there with every note as he's going through the scale with you. He is just awesome."
The last three years "2010, 2011 and 2012 I’ve been out touring with Cinderella and each year it’s gotten stronger and stronger -this technique that Ron taught me has really gotten my voice in a place where I think it’s better than it’s ever been since this problem. And in some ways, maybe some areas of my voice are a little stronger than they were before I had the problem because I’ve learned a lot of things over the years with voice training and how to support your voice right."
While Keifer admits that the Kiss bassist gave his band good advice, he was rebuffed when he tried to get Cinderella a record deal, it wasn’t until Jon Bon Jovi wandered into the Empire Rock Club around the time Slippery When Wet was blowing up and told Mercury Records about this new band he’d discovered. Keifer and his crew were signed to a six-month developmental deal before they recorded their debut. Despite the four or five years of commercial success, the band enjoyed thanks to 1988’s Long Cold Winter and 1990’s Heartbreak Station, the combination of grunge’s ascension and a vocal chord paralysis diagnosis for Keifer did a number on the band.
All through this, the vocalist soldiered on and sang to the best of his ability while seeking out different types of treatment, but it wasn’t until 2009 that his work with vocal coach Ron Anderson helped him manage the situation.
“What I had was partial paralysis of a vocal cord, so there is not a medicine or a surgery that can fix that. I was told in the early ’90s that I would never sing again and my only prayer of singing again would be to train it,” “It’s taken me decades-it’s like two steps forward and three back. The surgeries I’ve had are not to deal with the root problem but to repair injuries that I’ve had because I have a weakness. It’s like running on a sprained leg.”
I finally found a doctor who did like a simple neurological test on me. Then he looked with the scope and he said - cause I felt like I was starting to go crazy as this is over a couple of years - and I was finally diagnosed with this paresis and he said, “The good news is you’re not crazy. There is something wrong with your voice. But the bad news is you’re probably never going to sing again
I feel my voice is stronger than ever. As I said, I’ve had ups and downs over the years and I’ve had some real lows. The lowest and the darkest time, I hit a bottom where we had to cancel a tour in 2008 because it just got worse and one doctor thought I had a second paresis and he didn’t really confirm it. “You know it really hurts. Do you know if you have a paresis and if you have a paresis, there’s nothing we can do? Just go train your voice. There’s no point in putting you through that.” My voice was the worst between 2006 and 2008; it just really took a nosedive. I thought it was over at that point. I had done a few tours before that, that I’d got away with it. Maybe not quite as easy as it used to be but we did a bunch of tours after I had retrained it the first time but this felt like it was over."

I think Ron and everyone at Voixtek who helped Tom Keifer is amazing! God bless you all!! 💖

[@ripraz9815]

I love this man so much he’s me hero

[@Luvnlife880]

This man has such a huge heart and is so incredibly humbled that's old school respect you sure won't hear or see that from the artists and I use that term loosely cause it's a shame some that are able to have that title now days but you won't see or hear that sincere appreciation from the artists of today I wish they would learn it and really have to pay some dues to get to the top it's really more so today who can sound, look, and be the freakiest and most rude that go straight to the top where real men like Tom had to work and struggle to get there it wasn't just handed to him he had to put in the blood sweat and tears to get noticed.

[@roxannemoser]

He's one of the best blues based singers ever. Very underrated.

[@erikaselleh3057]

Boy, this video taught me how to sing like Tom Keifer in less than 2 minutes. GREAT JOB!

[@VOIXTEKLearnToSing-RonAnderson]

TruthSurge Obviously, this is a testimonial video, Thank you for your comment, as described, you can definitely work your voice with the training we bring at www.voixtek.com What Tom Keifer is describing here is how he understood that with correct training he was able to improve his voice without damaging his vocal cords. He describes what exactly helped him when he thought he was done singing. So you can too practice consistently with the quality exercises Voixtek provides and get the results. And by the way, you will learn to sing like you!

[@TruthSurge]

@@VOIXTEKLearnToSing-RonAnderson No, what's obvious is that the video title has NOTHING TO DO with the video. The video is an advertisement for a vocal coach. The title implies that the video is going to give you INFORMATION about how to sing like TK. Misleading video title. Please just stop with that deceptive tactic and make a title that is appropriate like "Tom Keifer recommends Ron Anderson for vocal coaching!" or some such. Thx

[@VOIXTEKLearnToSing-RonAnderson]

TruthSurge Thanks for your input!

[@TruthSurge]

@@VOIXTEKLearnToSing-RonAnderson No problem. I just didn't like clicking on the vid thinking I was going to hear Tom explain how he sings the raspy falsetto. :( It would be nice to hear him explain what he does or thinks he's doing even if it is just a few sentences. Is there some video on that anywhere??? thx

[@barfyman-eg1so]

Truth Surge wants to mimic Tom's timbre so he can pitch it up 2/3rds of an octave and add tons of processing to hide his god awful tone from straining. He is the biggest jerkoff on youtube. Don't pay him no mind.

You’re absolutely right. Thank you for pointing that out. you can learn to sing by using the same structural exercises that helped Tom protect and understand the dynamics of his voice at www.voixtek.com

We apologizes for such a mistake! The edit was made years ago. It doesn’t demean anything about him. Sorry we caused such trouble for you. The title of the KZbin video has his name corrected. Thanks.
