Jesus Jones is widely known for his alternative rock music that swept the charts during the late 80s and early 90s. The band is recognized for their dynamic instrumentals and hallmark use of electronic sound effects, which set them apart from their contemporaries. The vocals of lead singer, Mike Edwards, are distinctive because he blends traditional rock techniques with a style that is uniquely his own.

If you are interested in singing like Mike Edwards, the first step is to decode his style. Edwards uses a balance of two voice registers (also referred to as mixed voice): chest voice and falsetto. Chest voice is produced when the vocal cords are tightly closed, whereas falsetto is produced with a loose closure of vocal cords. To accentuate his vocals, Edwards uses a transition between these two voice registers with a vocal break, which sets him apart from other rock singers.

One song that showcases Edwards's vocal technique is 1991's "Right Here, Right Now" - a track that topped the US chart and became an instant classic.
