Get out of your head and into your body! Explore the strength and dynamics of your voice in a group setting through creative vocal play!
Hi, I am Crystal Lariza, lead singer for international touring band, Never Come Down and I am so excited to be bringing this workshop to Moon Mountain Highway. I have been delighted to teach all over the country (and internationally too) at various Bluegrass festivals and music camps, and I look forward to connecting with folks in my community here in the gorge!
This class will focus on simple techniques that can be applied for individual or group singing. We will touch on breathing, identifying the head vs. chest voice, learn how to warm up, and dabble in some group harmony! This workshop is for anyone searching for more awareness and presence in their voice.
Appropriate for beginners and intermediate levels.
Bring a water bottle to class!
