Singing Workshop - The Authentic, Believable Singer With Laurie MaCallister

Laurie MacAllister of Red Molly

Singing Workshop: “The Authentic, Believable Singer”


Genuine honest singing, from the heart, has the power to captivate listeners and leave them wanting more. This course will help you increase the believability of your voice and have a greater impact on your audience. The very best performances are ones that move a listener emotionally. In this class, we’ll explore a wide variety of things that will allow you to achieve greater authenticity in your vocals, including deeply inhabiting your material, creating a strong connection to your audience, and clearly enunciating your lyrics, so that you are fully understood. We’ll also look at how intentional variety in phrasing, and intentional variety in volume (dynamics) can increase the power of your delivery. We’ll look at stage fright and how to overcome it, in order to sing your very best. We’ll get creative with our vocals, purposely altering melodies to add sparkle and interest. And we’ll hit on important concepts like the power of regular practice, and the critical importance of health. I’ll sing for you, to illustrate skills and concepts, and will also ask for a few volunteers, so that you can learn from other students as they try out new things. The environment will be warm and supportive, judgment-free, and focused on improvement and growth. You’ll leave this class a better singer than when you walked in!
