Garage gig recording of me singing

[gsw]

Because of clipping in the video recording, this camera recording is the best I have at the moment that is shared and not pitch-corrected: http://goo.gl/CDuQC

I sound fairly awful. The rest of them (including some of my bandmates singing) is here, but they are distorted: http://goo.gl/8Oyhw

I haven't had any vocal training, since elementary school at least, and that was not individual- just through my school, and really haven't gotten back into music even half-seriously until 2008.

These are really poor quality, but perhaps something could be make of them to give advice if you are willing. I'm hoping to have some better quality recording of our gig at the end of this week, God-willing.

Thanks for listening!

It sounds like you are not managing your breath. You are singing with the same low breath pressure as when you speak. It's hard to hear because of the sound quality but it sounds like you are on pitch part of the time. Perhaps, you could not hear yourself while the band was playing. Make sure you can hear yourself.

Your tune is good, i like how it sounds but when you hit the higher note you sound very weak, but you can improve that easily with singing lessons and a lot of practice. I would recommend a vocal coach (i just started going after 10 years and it made a HUGE difference even after my first lesson)

All i can really say is practice every day! Sounds good so far

Can't understand a word of what you're singing but I like the tone of it. Probably has to do with the recording quality.
