Vocal technique, exercises, tips and relevant resources
Learning to Sing Like Stadio
Are you a fan of Italian rock and pop music? Then Stadio is a perfect fit for you. Founded in the late 70s, Stadio has evolved over time into one of the most popular and influential Italian pop rock bands. The key member of the band, Gaetano Curreri, has an exceptional vocal talent that's characterized by his ability to sing in an almost breathless tone.
Strive for Accuracy
The first step towards becoming a great singer is to find your vocal range and strive for pitch accuracy. Singing, like any other art form, requires a lot of practice, and you need to train your ears to recognize different pitches and the natural progression of melodies. Use the pitch accuracy test and the vocal range test available on Singing Carrots to hone your accuracy skills.
Focus on the Right Technique
Stadio's music is characterized by the use of chest voice and head voice, soft consonants, and a breathless singing style. To achieve this singing style, you need to focus on your technique and the articulation of words. You can learn more about the essential vocal techniques by reading Singing Carrots' articles on breath support, voice registers and vocal break, articulation, and how to sing without strain.
Work on Your Vibrato
The vibrato technique is essential in producing the unique sound that's characteristic of Stadio's music. You need to practice your vibrato by training your voice muscles to produce a relaxed and controlled tremolo that is in tune with the melody. Watch the Beggars Bounce and the Diaphragm Bounce exercises on Singing Carrots' videos to pick up some great vibrato techniques.
Master the Twang Technique
Stadio's Gaetano Curreri is well-known for his twang singing style, which gives his voice a unique quality that's full of energy. To imitate this singing style, you need to master the twang technique, which involves narrowing the arytenoid cartilage, a part of the larynx, to produce a sharp and focused sound. For more information, watch the How to Twang Exercise on Singing Carrots' videos.
