Every singer has their own method to the madness that is performing live on stage. After all, it’s incredibly important to protect your vocal cords for the longevity of the performance let alone in life itself. For me, I have a very specific warm-up method that consists of a recorded vocal lesson with my previous vocal coach Stuart Clarke (Wellington, NZ) who teaches the method of Speech Level Singing (SLS) that aims to make singing as easy and natural as speaking.
XELA: SOLTA O IRRESISTÍVEL SINGLE “NO LOVE”; OUÇA
ROADIE MAGAZINE - BRAZIL
“No Love” de Xela é um daqueles R&B repletos de sofisticação, com forte acento pop e repleto de sensualidade até a medula. Uma música irresistível! Esse é o mais novo single da cantora radicada na Austrália, Xela. Ao mesmo tempo que a batida “groovera” evoca uma sonoridade nostálgica, está simultaneamente alinhada com a perspectiva contemporânea em se fazer uma música dançante.
