The Vocal Lab
Приєднався 18 січ 2024
This show aims to pull back the curtain on the music industry, and give up-and-coming artists some of the knowledge that veterans wish they’d had when they were just starting out. Our format on The Vocal Lab incorporates some solo episodes where it’s just Sara, talking about voice care and singing and performance coaching, the realities of life on the road, and how to prep for the studio - basically answering questions you may or may not even know to ask! We will also have TONS of guest interview episodes, where veterans can draw on their experience to lay out the yellow brick road for the next generation of artists. You’ll get to hear their perspective through the lens of “what I know now that I wish I’d known then.”

They’re trying to be Entertainers, NOT Singers/Musicians! She is definitely right on this!
i know her for voicing kleo the misfit unicorn from 1997.
Interesting stuff. Thoughtful.
Not sure how this is not bigger on UA-cam. Clearly this is a case of the benefit of ‘takes one to know one’. West Coast Rock Royalty revealed. Gentle extraction never sounded so warm.
Much appreciated!!
Jeff Neil, prince of a man.
Awesome deep dive. Well worth the watch.
😊it isn’t tricking people, it’s learning & sharing good people skills.
What a blast from the past! ❤
Dam she’s beautiful.
Great info on both episodes he seems like a great guy. As an upcoming artist this was very helpful i feel like many dont try to do their homework and look for info like this. I try to learn everyday so thank you:)
He needs to get into shape and get healthy. Doesn't even look like himself. Still sings AMAZING.
Mike is such a humble, nice guy with a great voice!! I hate to be critical, but it's too bad he hasn't taken better care of his health. Being overweight cannot be good for his voice, plus it's not a great look for a front man on stage. It's very distracting from the music. More than half the comments on their recent videos are about his big belly. I'm just stating the obvious.
Great interview. Thanks.
Just saw Loverboy live and Mike was unreal. Band was spot on.
Thank you for this interview!! Will watch part 2 as well. I'm just a 60 year old fan from the beginning of Loverboy!! You rock❤❤❤❤
Such a great idea and podcast Sara!
So exciting to see this! Thanks so much for having me, Sara!
I loved our conversation! So great to get into the nitty gritty with you.

Great interview with Nik !! brilliant drummer
We couldn't agree more - Nik IS a brilliant drummer, with great insights!
