Singing Guide: Herman's Hermits

Vocal technique, exercises, tips and relevant resources

Are you a beginner or advanced singer?

Herman’s Hermits were an English band formed in Manchester in 1964, known for their catchy pop songs and upbeat melodies. Lead singer Peter Noone’s youthful voice and playful stage presence added to the band's appeal, making them a fan favorite of the British Invasion.

If you are looking to learn how to sing like Peter Noone, there are a few things to keep in mind that will help you emulate his unique vocal style.

  • Firstly, Noone was known for his bright, clear tone, which he achieved by focusing on his breath and maintaining a relaxed jaw and throat. Breath control is a key element of any good singing technique, so be sure to check out Singing Carrots' breathing exercises to improve your technique.
  • Another key element of Noone's singing style is his use of vibrato. Vibrato refers to the slight variation in pitch and tone that gives a singer's voice warmth and character. Singing Carrots has an excellent article on how to sing with vibrato, which includes a video demonstration by a professional vocal coach.
  • One of the most iconic songs by Herman's Hermits is probably "I'm Into Something Good", the band's first major hit. This song showcases Noone's playful delivery and smooth vocal style. While it's a relatively simple song, it's a great example of how Noone used his voice to convey emotion and charm his audience.
