Vocal technique, exercises, tips and relevant resources

Are you a beginner or advanced singer?

30 Seconds to Mars, a band known for their unique blend of alt rock and arena-ready anthems. With frontman Jared Leto's soaring vocals and theatrical stage presence, they have become one of the most iconic bands of the 21st century. If you want to learn to sing like Jared, there are a few things to keep in mind.

  • Firstly, Jared's vocals are incredibly versatile, ranging from chesty rock belting to delicate falsetto. He's known for his use of vibrato, which gives his notes a pulsing, almost otherworldly quality. To achieve this, it's important to work on your breath control and diaphragmatic support. Singing scales and exercises with sustained notes will help you build the strength and control you need to achieve that vibrancy.
  • One of the most impressive aspects of Jared's vocals is his ability to switch between registers. He transitions seamlessly between chest voice and head voice, which gives his melodies a sense of fluidity and range. It's important to practice switching between these registers, starting with simple scales and moving on to more complex melodies when you feel comfortable.
  • Finally, Jared is also known for his emotionally charged performances, so it's important to develop not just your vocal skills, but also your ability to connect with your music on a deep, personal level. Singing with the sense of genuine feeling will help you evoke that same emotional intensity that Jared brings to his performances.

To really capture Jared's vocal style, try working with Singing Carrots' Pitch Training resources, which feature warm-ups, pitch visualizers, and exercises for range and agility. The vocal range test can help you identify your own vocal range and compare it with Jared and other famous singers. Use the song search and song-book features to find songs that suit your vocal range and genre preferences and create your own performance set. Finally, be sure to check out the Singing for Beginners course, which covers singing theory and practical tips to help you refine your vocal technique and reach your full potential.

With dedication and practice, you can learn to sing like Jared Leto and unleash your own inner rock star.
