Learn To Sing Man In the Box (Chest Voice) Like Layne Staley

[@aidanmullenger3390]

Layne Kurt and Freddie mercury are the greatest vocalists ever layne had a beautiful tone and range and Freddie had a tone and range no one can ever fully recreate and Kurt could go quite high with that raspy voice and his tone was legendary

INTERESTING TO HEAR THE LAYNE VOCALS ALONG WITH THE EFFECTS CHAIN. BY THE WAY EXCELLENT VIDEO AND GREAT JOB THERE. QUESTION. ASIDE FROM THE OBVIOUS TALENT LAYNE POSSESSED, WHICH IS APPARENT ON THESE TRACKS, HOW IMPORTANT IS THE VOCAL CHAIN WE ARE HEARING? I CAN SAY AFTER LISTENING TO THIS TRACK 300 TIMES IN THE LAST 30 YEARS I NEVER REALLY NOTICED THE DEPTH OF THE EFFECTS ON THIS PRODUCTION. MY EARS SORT OF CHALKED IT UP TO MULTI-TRACKING AND BACKUP VOCALS PERHAPS BY JERRY. -- MOVING FORWARD FROM A STUDENT TO PERFORMER, HOW IMPORTANT IS THIS FOR LIVE PERFORMANCE? THANK YOU

[@RockYourBestVocals]

I never use effects live (except maybe a TINY bit of reverb) otherwise it gets too 'washy' and can cause me to think I'm singing better than I am.

[@empei5432]

O yess I try to learn how to sing I love Layne staley voice and style 🤟❤ maybe next with kurt Cobain.?

[@empei5432]

Or chris & ben (soundgarden) - blow up the outside world

[@davidyorkshire7055]

Do one how to sing like John Lennon

So cool. Jim , I have a question if you don't mind. That compression video of yours is helping me big time 😊. But I'm having a hard time to do it in a higher register like that line "I'VE GOT ANOTHER CONFESSION TO MAKE". I can do it at the speaking voice level and I'm getting used to the sensation. But as soon as I try to get higher, I just choke on it 😅. Am I holding back too much? Or there is something else going on, would you mind if I ask you to shed some light on this

[@RockYourBestVocals]

Hi Aryan, most of this is down to the specific 'secret' techniques I teach in my courses or private students (that is the fastest way)... the other (FREE) way is to just trial and error, and get it over time. How long depends on how dedicated you are. But if you are dedicated and serious and want to learn fastest, it means investing in yourself. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!!! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

[@aidanmullenger3390]

U need to cover this song lol

[@RockYourBestVocals]

I've wanted to do that for awhile, and intend on doing more covers so stay tuned 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

[@fatbob1080]

Interesting but how do you hit that Bb note in the first place? On a good day I can get to A but I’m more comfortable around F or G tops 🤷‍♀️🤔😅

[@RockYourBestVocals]

Top secret ;) Seriously though, there are several techniques and 'secret' tricks/hacks I teach to extend range in my courses, but impossible to explain like in text here I'm afraid :/ Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!!! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

[@viictor1309]

I guess that's probably because he has a naturally high pitched voice. And I feel you, we are simply physically unable (in chest voice) to hit that Bb however we rock Pearl Jam, STP and Creed just awesome

[@barneystinson4289]

This. I will reach that high Bb4 or die trying

[@David-ct7zx]

hes high all the time? or is it just me? I grew up with the Layne and its more nasally i think drop a half step and get more nasally :)
