Are you a beginner or advanced singer?

The Kalin Twins were an American pop duo highly regarded for their close vocal harmonies. The unique twin sound that they created quickly gained popularity and affection of a large audience during the late 50s.

To sing like the Kalin Twins, you should master their unique harmonization technique and learn from their most famous hits.

One of the Kalin Twins' most famous songs is "When." It features tight vocal harmonies and a simple yet memorable melody - a perfect song for practicing harmonization. Another great song to practice harmonization is "Forget Me Not." Try singing each part separately before combining them, and focus on matching your brother's note and timing.

To master the harmonization technique, one should also have a good understanding of harmony and vocal range. Singing Carrots offer a great tool to help you with it - the vocal range test. Once you know your range, you will be better equipped to find your part in the harmony.

Breathing technique is another essential element of singing. Read the Singing Carrots blog post on breathing basics to learn about the differences between active and passive breathing and how they impact your singing.
