S1 Episode 3: Develop Your Authentic Vocal Artistry ft. Mariela Contreras

To develop your authentic vocal artistry you can think of it in terms of branding. “Branding” is a word I don’t really like at all when it comes to singers.  It sounds too manufactured. But on the contrary, I use it as a way of discovering what’s truly unique and special about a singer. It’s the thing that your fans will remember you by.  Voice lessons experts everywhere strive to draw out these qualities in their singers. Much of their knowledge comes from their own personal journies as singers. My friend, Mariela, knew that being bilingual was an integral part of her identity. It was even the focus of her academic studies and teaching credentials. With years of creative experimenting and by using methods to identify her unique, memorable qualities, she discovered her authentic vocal artistry. 🦄
