With her unconventional, yet captivating vocal style, Edith Whiskers brings a fresh and authentic approach to the world of contemporary folk music.

One of the most distinctive elements of Whiskers' singing style is her use of "breathy" or aspirate singing, which is often used to create an ethereal and atmospheric sound.

Another key aspect of Whiskers' unique vocal style is her use of vibrato, which gives her singing an almost hypnotic quality.
