Vocal technique, exercises, tips and relevant resources
Little Mix is a British girl group that has become well-known for their powerful vocals and catchy hooks. In this article, we'll share some tips on how to learn singing like Little Mix.
First, it's important to understand the unique vocal styles of each member of the group. Jade Thirlwall often uses a breathy tone in her upper range, while Leigh-Anne Pinnock has a strong, soulful sound. Jesy Nelson sings with a lot of grit and power, and Perrie Edwards has a high, belty voice. Understanding these nuances can give you a better sense of how to approach their songs.
One of Little Mix's signature vocal techniques is their harmonies. They often sing in tight, complex harmonies, which can be challenging to replicate. Singing Carrots' Pitch Training tool can help you develop your ear for tuning and train your voice to sing in harmony. The Vocal Range Test can also help you identify your range and figure out which Little Mix songs will be best suited to your voice.
When it comes to specific Little Mix songs, there are a few that showcase their unique vocal styles particularly well. "Secret Love Song" is a great example of Leigh-Anne's soulful singing, while "Power" features lots of Jesy's gritty vocals. Perrie's high range is on display in songs like "Shout Out to My Ex" and "Touch."
In terms of practical advice, it's important to focus on proper breathing and posture. Singing Carrots has several articles on these topics, including "Breathing Basics", "Breath Support", and "How Posture Affects Your Singing." Incorporating these techniques into your singing practice can help you improve your tone and range.
Overall, learning to sing like Little Mix requires a combination of understanding their unique vocal styles, developing your ear for tuning, and focusing on good singing technique. By using Singing Carrots' resources and practicing regularly, you can start to incorporate some of these techniques into your own singing and develop your own unique style.
