Do you want to take your vocals to the next level? We all hear ‘Highway to Hell’ in our heads, with lead singer Brian Johnson’s raspy sound, Tom Waits grunting and growling on ‘Waltzing Mathilda’, James Brown’s screams on ‘Sexmachine’ or Janis Joplins ‘Distortion’. Authorized Complete Vocal Technique Coach and professional singer Vicky Harrison will be teaching the Effects Workshop this September. She is a master of the so-called “Rough Effects“ such as Distortion, Grunt, Growl and Rattle, which will be the focus of this workshop. What i will cover:
- An overview of Complete Vocal technique
- What the ‘Rough Effects’ are, including listening examples
- The anatomy of the effects
- Tricks to find the effects
- All the ‘warnings’ of what NOT to do when making these sounds
Vicky has taught this workshop in a Frankfurt singing school (Sing Yeah), at Cambridge Visual and Performing Arts College, and at her studio in Cambridgeshire. “This is one of my favorite workshops to teach as its so much fun” says Vicky.
