Belle Miners - Learn to Love your Voice Workshop!

Advertisement

Belle Miners will be returning to the beautiful community of Port Alberni to present their two-hour workshop 'Learn to LOVE Your Voice!' featuring the bands most widely acclaimed skills: singing, harmonies and songwriting.

The session begins with vocal coach Felicia Harding of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. A thoughtful and engaging teacher, Felicia uses her years of fronting bands of all genres and serious vocal study and coaching (SingIT Studio, Victoria, BC) to bring you a warm up that will get those chords feeling ready for just about anything! She will then delve into how to protect and develop your voice.

Following your vocal warm up we will delve into the wonderful world of vocal harmonies. Belle Miners’ harmony-rich album, Powerful Owl, was released to much acclaim in late 2017 with the bands harmonies being called ‘seamless’ (Bob Leggett, Indie Voice, Los Angeles), and ’flawless and blend of voices brilliant’ (Spill Magazine, Canada). The trio recently released an EP "Dandelion" on their 2024 "reunion tour" which brings a little CSNY flavour to the mix.

Jaime Jackett will break down harmony to the basics, piece by piece in an easy to understand manner. You will walk away with some tools in your belt to start working on your own harmonies.
Finally, we will turn to the art of songwriting.

For 14 seasons Marina Avros worked in isolation at a fire lookout deep in the wilderness of Northern Alberta. During this time she had the opportunity to spend thousands of hours honing in on the craft of songwriting. Through the concept of kinaesthetic learning Marina will nurture the group and lean on the skills of her bandmates to guide everyone towards the creation of a song.

The workshop will cover the following:
Vocal warmups
Protecting and developing your voice
Introduction to singing in harmony
Tips and tricks from 3 female, seasoned touring musicians
Developing your songwriting
