Your Best Singing Performance
If you want to give your best singing performance, you need to know how to behave, so here are a few tips to help you out.
Rehearsing
Rehearse with the band. A minimum of one dress rehearsal should be carried out prior to taking the stage. For the last rehearsal and dress rehearsal you should sing the music from memory.
Choosing your outfit
Make sure you choose a good outfit, because this can determine the outcome of your show. When you choose an outfit, make sure that you wear it during rehearsals so that you get used to it. Make sure that you can move and breathe in the outfit you have chosen to wear.
Walking out onto the stage
Figure out where to stand on the stage, and then practice walking to that spot. While one would think walking across a stage would be easy, it's actually fairly difficult. The idea is to stop in place, but land in the right posture as well. Find your alignment, walk across the room and maintain that posture.
Keep the speaker turned away from you
The experience of singing with a band will be a lot of things, but initially it will be confusing. If the speakers are pointed away from you, which they probably will be, you may have trouble hearing yourself. Ask if it's possible to have a speaker turned toward you. The problem is that bands play loudly, and a speaker can be distracting if you're not used to it. If there is an instrument that plays the melody line, make sure you learn to pick it out.
Remember to smile
Make sure you smile as you go on stage. Even if you are nervous, a smile, will make you appear more confident. Your smile needs to look genuine even if you're nervous and don't want to be on the stage.
Acknowledge your audience
When you are singing, you might not know when it's time to pay attention to the audience. As a singer, you will perform in many different places, and not all of them will be small. To get a feel for whether to include the audience as part of your song, watch and learn from the seasoned pros.
Distractions will occur
A concert can yield many different distractions for a performer. People might enter late, cough, get up and leave, or any number of other things. People in the audience often don't consider how this distracts the performer. That being said, it would be wise to stage a few distractions as you practice at home. The best way to ignore distractions is to have friends distract you and see how lo you can ignore it.
What to do with your hands
Make sure you don't do anything strange with your hands while you are performing; keep them at your sides if you can. Though your sides might not seem like a great place, it is at least a safe place. If you choose to gesture, make it a complete gesture and make sure your elbows move out away from your body. If you need another option, then you can clasp your hands to the front of you.
Okay so now you know some live performance basics. Of course before you present yourself to the crowds, you'll need to do some work on your singing voice. I highly recommend the Singing Success vocal training program. Also if you're looking for guidance about the best techniques to promote you and your band, you'll definitely want to check out Social Bandmaker.
