Welcome to The Vocal Lab Podcast! Today, we delve into the fascinating world of singing and neuroscience with Meredith Colby, the pioneer of the Neuro Vocal Method. Meredith shares her insights into how our brains play a pivotal role in singing, even before our voices join in. She explains the common challenges singers face in altering their vocal habits due to the brain's pre-established patterns of how singing should be.

Meredith emphasizes the significant shift from traditional vocal teaching to coaching in popular music genres. This approach, she argues, is crucial for singers striving to discover and hone their unique vocal styles, enabling true artistic expression. She highlights the importance of setting clear intentions before practicing, which can streamline the learning process and yield better outcomes. Meredith's expertise in the interplay between neuroscience and vocal training illuminates how focusing on one aspect at a time can facilitate more effective learning and faster progression in singing skills.

Understanding the neuroscience behind our singing abilities is more than just academic; it's a practical tool for vocal sustainability and improvement. Meredith's approach through her Neuro Vocal Method and her various educational initiatives offers invaluable resources for voice coaches and singers alike.

Join us Thursday for the second half of our interview with Meredith. Stay tuned!
