A Special Singing Tip Show on January 7th!

Benita Charles at Brookfield Place NYC

Happy New Year 2017!! Thanks for joining me for special episode of Singing Tips! The first singing tip of 2017!! This week, we discussed Mariah Carey's NYE performance disaster. It's something we as performers can all learn from.

3 Things that we can learn from Mariah Carey's Performance Disaster:

1) Always be fully prepared (well rehearsed) for all live performances

Before a performance, make sure you have had adequate rehearsals
If there's a sound check, make sure you're there and you check your own sound
If you're able to rehearse before a show, make sure you rehearse as much as allowed

2) Always be prepared to sing "live" at all live performances

It should always be a last resort to lip synch
If the power or sound goes out, be prepared to sing a cappella and entertain the audience
Perform with a live band with background singers if at all possible

3) Take full responsibilities for the things that you didn't do to ensure you have a stellar performance

Don't blame others for the things that you should have taken care of (make sure all equipment and tracks are fully checked before the show)
Apologize to your audience for a lack-luster performance
Plan a make-up show and make sure it's a stellar performance

We can all learn from each other. The most important thing is to pick yourself up when you fall and soar. You soar by making sure you're fully prepared for all performances!

Best wishes as you take your voice to the next level! I hope you have a rich and prosperous New Year 2017!

Much love,

Benita Charles
