Are you a beginner or advanced singer?

If you're looking to learn how to sing like Brooke Fraser, you're in the right place! Let me guide you through the basics of her unique vocal technique and suggest some practical exercises to help you develop your singing skills.

Brooke Fraser is known for her crystal-clear, soaring voice and emotive delivery. To sound like Brooke Fraser, you should focus on two main things: breath control and emotional expression.

To achieve great breath control, you'll need to work on your breathing techniques. Read up on breathing basics with this Singing Carrots article on active and passive breathing and practice the Farinelli Breathing exercise from the list of skill-related videos section. This will help you maintain adequate breath support throughout your phrases and develop your lung capacity.

Next, you'll want to focus on your emotional expression. Brooke's voice is powerful and emotive, so it's important to connect with the lyrics of your songs and be comfortable with displaying your emotions. To help with this, work on your breathing and emotions while singing "Beggars Bounce" and "Diaphragm Bounce" from the list of vibrato videos.

Once you've got the basics down, it's time to focus more specifically on Brooke's unique vocal style. She often displays good control over her vocal registers and sings in a mix of head voice and chest voice, or a "mixed voice". Start with this Singing Carrots article on voice registers & vocal break to learn more about this technique.

To further develop your mixed voice, try the "Voice Break" and "Mixed Voice" exercises from the list of skill-related videos section. These exercises will help you find the perfect balance between chest and head voice and develop the mixed voice technique that Brooke often uses.

Finally, don't forget to have fun with your training! Brooke Fraser's music is full of beautiful melodies and heartfelt lyrics, and it's important to stay motivated and enjoy what you're singing. Use Singing Carrots' Song search tool to find songs that fit your vocal range, and create your performance set with Singing Carrots' Song-book tool to get linked lyrics, sheet music, chords, karaoke, and YouTube audio.
