THE VOICE CONNECTION
SOUND OFF

Welcome to The Voice Connection Sound Off; a forum for users of books like Raise Your Voice, Melody to Madness, The Ultimate Breathing Workout, and Unleash Your Creative Mindset, as well as a place for Vendera Vocal Academy members to interact.

This message board was created so that singers could come together and "sound off" to help support each other during vocal development and the creative process of unleashing the creative spark that occurs when writing and producing music. Currently, myself and vocal coaches Ben Valen, Ray West, and Ryan Wall are here to respond periodicially to your questions, with new vocal coaches coming soon. But, feel free to help each other too:)

This board is here for you to ask questions about my and my fellow coach's books, videos, and MP3 programs, as well as offer others help with our vocal techniques. You may also post videos of yourself and your band to share your music and ask for critiques.

Please refrain from negative comments, profanities, spamming, and inappropriate criticisms of vocal methodologies, vocal coaches, and singers. All negative posts will be deleted and subject to banning without question. I will not respond to negative posts, because, as Mark Twain once said, “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.” With that said, positive criticism is welcome because that is how you'll grow as a singer during the training process.

A New Year’s gift from your vocal coach

Hello singers,

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and I’m hoping you’ll have a wonderful New Year’s Holiday. If you’re out and about this New Year’s Eve, please be careful.

I’m writing to offer you a gift to help you start the New Year right, especially if you’re making resolutions to improve your voice. I’m giving away my Ultimate Vocal Warm Up mp3 through my new “Jaime Vendera’s Vocal Bootcamp” series, presented by Guitar Interactive Magazine. Each month, I’m releasing an article and video exclusive to Guitar Interactive that you will find nowhere else. We filmed these videos in Vegas specifically for the magazine. This month marks my second Bootcamp session. In this month’s issue (Issue 22) you’ll learn how to get the Ultimate Vocal Warm Up for free, no strings attached. So please, check it out at http://www.iguitarmag.com/the-mag/. Plus, you’ll get to see a cool video from yours truly. Don’t forget to also check out Issue 21 for my first Bootcamp article.

Also, I wanted to share my happiness over two brand new products we’ve just released, two vocal training products that I am very, very proud of. My Beyond Stage Presence video from the Beyond the Voice vocal instruction video line marks the third video in the series. I believe it is by far the best video yet. We are already working on videos 4 & 5 to complete the series. But the Stage Presence video will also be my favorite because it features me singing with a group of lifelong friends as bandmates who helped me put on a special concert just for filming this instructional video. Learn about the Beyond the Voice series at http://venderapublishing.com/beyondthevoice/.

I am also extremely proud of my newest warm up mp3, The Rock & Metal Singer’s Vocal Warm Up Routine, brought to you by the same team who created the Extreme Scream series. This warm up was carefully thought out with the rock and metal singer in mind. You get to sing scales along to real music tracks, AND, these scales are like no other. They are all in minor keys and feature new ways to warm up the voice that I have never presented before, including the Bubble Gargle combo warm up, the Pharyngeal Fire Warm Up, and more. Check it out at http://venderapublishing.com/mp3s/2013/12/29/the-rock-metal-singers-vocal-warm-up-routine.html.

Bottom line, if you are making resolutions to build a better voice, you can begin by checking out my Vocal Bootcamp and getting your free Ultimate Vocal Warm Up. As well, feel free to sign up for my email list through JaimeVendera.com to get more free instructional videos.

Here’s to singing higher, louder, longer, and stronger,

Jaime Vendera

I have a question:

When are these going to be sent out?(The "Ultimate Vocal Warm Up" MP3 via Guitar Interactive Magazine)


Thanks,
Tim

Re: A New Year’s gift from your vocal coach

If you went through the magazine and emailed as direct, then you have been sent an email from me and the link.

Ok.

It must have gone to my spam folder and got deleted. Darn it!
