Writers write. Actors act. Singers sing. That’s how to become a singer. Take a leaf out of Coldplay’s book and sing, sing, sing. If you don’t practice, you don’t end up fronting a band or knocking the socks off the gods in an opera. Its as simple as that!
So. If you really want to know how to become a successful singer, you could do worse than follow these simple steps. First of all, anyone asking how to become a singer would be told (by anyone from Frank Sinatra to Eminem): don’t give up. Seriously. There’s no joy without pain in the performing arts and you don’t see superstars giving it some welly in 10,000 capacity arenas without that they’ve had a long hard road to get there. Even talent shows like Pop Idol or the X Factor require some serious dedication to get on. If you asked Will Young or Leona Lewis how to become a singer they wouldn’t tell you they’d just walked onto your TV screen and wandered off with a million pound record deal – they’d talk about years of practice, years of nearly winning talent contests or almost getting on TV shows before their big break. Be hungry and tenacious. That’s how to become a singer. The story of virtually every well known famous singer is one of near misses, as much as it is of that elusive record deal.
Emulate your heroes and heroines. No-one wants to sing in a vacuum. There must be at least two or three singers you’d love to be able to sound like. An important part of learning how to become a singer is copying them. How does Leona Lewis hit that high note? How did Nina Simone sound so mellow? What about Freddie Mercury and his endless register? If you want to know how to become a singer you’d do a lot worse than a bit of good honest copying. Once you’ve mastered the techniques of your vocal heroes you’ll be a lot closer to knowing not just how to become a singer, but how to become your kind of singer.
Of course this is just a few tips and tricks to help you to the top, there is a lot more to it than this but rest assured sticking to these tips will have you heading in the right direction! Remember Rome wasn’t built in a day but with practice, patience and of course some natural ability and a passion for singing you too can become a singer of the future.
