1. 0:00all right welcome back aaron with
2. 0:02superior singing method and i want to
3. 0:04teach you how to find your head voice a
4. 0:06lot of people
5. 0:07never
6. 0:09find their head voice and i know that
7. 0:10sounds crazy but that might actually be
8. 0:13you people think that they do but they
9. 0:15don't necessarily haven't found their
10. 0:16head voice and the reason this is so
11. 0:17important is because on those higher
12. 0:19notes if we find our head voice we could
13. 0:22get
14. 0:23seeing higher notes with more power with
15. 0:26less strain which means we can sing for
16. 0:28longer and sound better and all the good
17. 0:30things that we want right so
18. 0:32i want to teach you how to find your
19. 0:33head voice and i'm also going to give
20. 0:34you a great exercise on how to
21. 0:36strengthen the head voice as well okay
22. 0:38so we're going to go on a little journey
23. 0:40together let's get started
24. 0:42so when
25. 0:44what most people do that can't find
26. 0:46their head voice you've heard me say
27. 0:48this kind of idea several times because
28. 0:49this is the most common one of the most
29. 0:51common pitfalls of singers is they try
30. 0:54to sing those higher notes with a chest
31. 0:56voice um by the by the way the chest
32. 0:58voice is what i'm speaking in right now
33. 1:00right this is my chest voice
34. 1:03and here said this is fine this is a
35. 1:05nice
36. 1:06resonant kind of kind of full you know
37. 1:08for this lower but when we get to the
38. 1:09higher notes um we want to sing in the
39. 1:11chest voice when you sing when you try
40. 1:13to sing the higher notes with your chest
41. 1:15voice it's that idea of pulling up or
42. 1:17pushing or forcing and i don't talk i've
43. 1:20probably never talked about this but
44. 1:22just like falsetto which we're going to
45. 1:24talk a little bit about today just like
46. 1:26falsetto you don't want to sing in
47. 1:28falsetto but falsetto is a nice little
48. 1:30color here and there right you flipping
49. 1:32you know a lot of artists will flip into
50. 1:33falsetto quickly and come back and it's
51. 1:35just a nice little color actually
52. 1:37pulling up your chest voice can be a
53. 1:39nice little color too like
54. 1:42a lot of punk rock singers if you listen
55. 1:43like machine gun kelly or something
56. 1:46his whole style is based on pulling his
57. 1:48chest voice up so it's like be my bloody
58. 1:52valentine
59. 1:56it's cool i i like it i i like the sound
60. 1:59of it but um
61. 2:01if you don't do it right and probably
62. 2:03maybe even if you do do it right you
63. 2:05will
64. 2:07kill your voice in a very short period
65. 2:09of time but not or not be able to sing
66. 2:11very long in one stretch of period
67. 2:13because it's incredibly straining on
68. 2:15your voice when you're up there okay so
69. 2:18we want to learn how to if you want to
70. 2:19do that color cool like you can do that
71. 2:21let's also learn how to sing in that
72. 2:23nice resonant head voice so
73. 2:26uh so the head voice is it's up here
74. 2:29it's up here this is chess voice this is
75. 2:33head voice and then falsetto this is
76. 2:35head voice
77. 2:38that's flipping into falsetto okay so
78. 2:39these are kind of kind of the different
79. 2:41ranges the
80. 2:42head voice there's going to be a lighter
81. 2:44quality to it
82. 2:46it's a lighter quality than
83. 2:49it's a little more weight right so um
84. 2:53what happens with the head voice is it
85. 2:55helps you hit those higher notes but
86. 2:57it's nice to be able to blend the head
87. 2:59voice in the chest voice which is the
88. 3:00mixed voice that's going to be a
89. 3:01different video but that's how you get a
90. 3:03little more weight and a little more
91. 3:05like power up there in your head voice
92. 3:07so
93. 3:09another fun fact about the head voice is
94. 3:11guys actually tend to have a harder time
95. 3:13finding their head voice than
96. 3:15girls and women and i know there's a lot
97. 3:17of gender fluidity and i'm okay with all
98. 3:19that so it's going to vary from person
99. 3:21to person regardless of how you identify
100. 3:24but just if we can speak generally right
101. 3:26now guys have a slightly harder time
102. 3:28because
103. 3:29guys tend to have a broader chest voice
104. 3:31and a smaller head voice and women
105. 3:33generally speaking have a broader head
106. 3:36voice and like a shorter smaller chest
107. 3:39voice so it's a little harder for guys
108. 3:40to find their head voice for that for
109. 3:42that reason so i'm going to give you a
110. 3:43couple of exercises
111. 3:44no matter how you identify to find your
112. 3:47head voice and one of them starts with
113. 3:49uh i don't know if you used to watch
114. 3:50those old bugs bunny cartoons you ever
115. 3:52seen that but um bugs bunny sings in
116. 3:54kind of a pharyngeal range it's like
117. 3:55yeah what's up doc yeah what's up doc up
118. 3:58there and kind of like that ferran girl
119. 4:00up there that's up that's up in your
120. 4:02head voice hey what's up doc up there
121. 4:04and that's a that's kind of with a
122. 4:06little the ng sound that we talk of the
123. 4:08n g
124. 4:10the n g sound i talk a lot about because
125. 4:13it yeah it's what call it's what what's
126. 4:15called like connection like
127. 4:16vocal cold or vocal fold connection
128. 4:20that ng helps you get that so
129. 4:23it's not falsetto right it's not
130. 4:26that light airy sound but it's um and
131. 4:29here's the exercise with the ng and kind
132. 4:31of once you find that
133. 4:33it's going to be that ngo
134. 4:42[Music]
135. 4:45and then also um just another way to
136. 4:47find your head voice is like an owl
137. 4:52right that's up there in the head voice
138. 4:54or like when you're a kid when you made
139. 4:56those ghost sounds
140. 4:57[Music]
141. 5:01actually down low there was the chest
142. 5:03voice but so
143. 5:06chest voice
144. 5:10voices up there so chest voice is easy
145. 5:12to develop you probably have a very
146. 5:13strong chest voice again what i'm
147. 5:15speaking in now is my chest voice so we
148. 5:17most of us have a pretty well developed
149. 5:18chest voice but we want to be able to
150. 5:20work that head voice so that we can sing
151. 5:22those higher notes with power with
152. 5:23strength and that that are very
153. 5:25connected um and
154. 5:27so
155. 5:28there are transitions and breaks between
156. 5:30the chest and the head voice we'll talk
157. 5:31about that in another video but this
158. 5:33actual exercise that
159. 5:39is one that will help blend some of
160. 5:41those transitions to avoid some of those
161. 5:43cracks and breaks listen smash the like
