What do you do when your singing voice gives out mid-set? Why does your vocal endurance fail, even when you feel ready? Whether you constantly lose your voice mid-performance or force yourself to keep singing no matter how exhausted your voice is, dive into what really causes vocal fatigue on stage—and how to fix it. From mastering subtle resets to balancing distortion and clean vocals, join me as we uncover practical ways to build vocal resilience, sing with power, and deliver every performance with control and longevity.
In this episode:
- Learn why you lose your singing voice during a performance—and how to stop it from happening
- Why endurance issues usually point to poor training, not just poor singing
- The difference between shaping for belt and distortion vs. pushing for it
- How yawning and sighing can reset your voice on stage
- How crying prepares your voice for the hard parts
- Why rehearsing your setlist like a real show preps your voice too
- Discover how small vocal cues (like “hey” or a soulful “mmm”) can lock in your voice placement
- Learn to balance distortion and clean singing to avoid vocal fatigue
- How to keep distortion powerful without pushing
- Why over-articulation creates intensity better than pushing
- Why consistency, awareness, and shaping—not brute force—create lasting impact
