If you're a Dodie or Tom Walker fan, you might be wondering how you can improve your singing and emulate their unique sound.

Both of them have different singing styles, but they share some fundamental techniques that contribute to their signature sound. In this article, we'll dive into the vocal techniques of Dodie and Tom Walker and share some tips and Singing Carrots resources to help you develop your own unique sound.

Dodie's Singing Technique

Dodie's voice is known for its airy, delicate quality, which is achieved through breath control and deliberate articulation. Arguably, the most standout feature of dodie's voice is her vibrato technique. Vibrato is an oscillation of the pitch, which creates a warmer and richer sound. You can practice vibrato by humming a note and gradually increase the amount of pressure in your diaphragm as you hold the note. Additionally, Dodie often sings in her upper register, which she projects smoothly and without strain. To improve your upper register, practice your head voice, and implement vocal slides as part of your warm-up routine.

Tom Walker's Singing Technique

Tom Walker's signature sound is characterized by his dynamic range and gritty, expressive tone. To achieve this, Tom Walker enunciates his words clearly and with force, especially in his choruses. He also employs the use of twang, a technique that creates a nasal and brassy tone. Twang involves narrowing the vocal cords and lifting the soft palate, which allows for better control of pitch and pronunciation. Lastly, Tom Walker has a particular growl technique, which involves a mix of distortion and aspiration. It's a vocal effect that requires a lot of practice to perfect, but when done correctly, it can add power and edge to your voice.
