Each time I have to perform, I still get unbearably nervous. When that happens, I start with the above mentioned excuses but I'm glad it happens to the best of us and provided are good ways of overcoming that fear I’ve been performing since I was 15 and have had many moments of glory as well as some I’d like to forget.

You are a funk cover band performer you say - so there is a good chance that the crowd already knows the songs you are singing. Encourage them to sing along with you....point your mic to the crowd and tell them to sing some of your lead parts. Also, simply give all you have - we like to connect with performers who are giving all they have emotionally. It's a vulnerable place, but it speaks volumes to the audience! It's rewarding for everyone! Michael W. Bryant Aapproach Instructor Hello Mihael,

I'm really new at this. I was choosen to lead at a choir performance, and though it was not requested I start to look at every good advice and singing technics I could find in order to make it a good performance. This is how I found all those great advice from AApproach. Well, now suggesting to make it an habit to performe and break through is quit something else.... Sound intersting though, I'll start with that coming performance and see if I like it. Thank for the advice, truly hope to make it a new practice!! =D Hey! I’m really new at this.

I really didn't see it that way. I used to go to karaoke 1 a week for about a year, and I used to loose because I moved around too much or I did too many runs. I used to get discouraged when the judges used to point out my weaknesses. I just stopped going. I have just been writing song, and building my studio at home. I have a producer that works with me, but I am scared of what others have to say about my music. I want to be a world class performer, but the only way to do that is to perform. I guess it's time for me to get back out there. Everyone does have to crawl before we walk. Thank you again for the wise words, and I love the home-study program by the way. It is far more affordable than the private lessons I was paying for. I really believe I am getting more for less, because I always felt tension from the other exercises that my instructor used to give me, but your exercises free my voice, release tension, and still build more power and strength. I wish much success to you. Be blessed, Tanye' Thank you for that insight! I really didn’t see it that way.
