The Vocal Code Unlocked Season 2 In The Hot Seat with Steve Anderson Part 2

Music brought the three of us together and we’ve since had the absolute pleasure of working side by side in the industry on some incredible projects for many years. What’s almost as amazing is that we can still unearth stories from our past that we didn’t know about each other. It is true what they say, everyday is a school day.

Adetoun shares her introduction into the music industry as member of girl group ‘Angels in White’ and how it coincided with her first professional backing vocal job with X Factor champion, Leona Lewis. She tells us how she would watch & learn from Leona and hone her skills for adapting her own voice. She talks about the experimentation with vocal arrangements whilst delivering high energy performances with Ellie Goulding, the balance of singing & full choreography with Robbie Williams and then mastering the world of vocal ghosting whilst discovering a whole new side to her voice when joining the well oiled machine that is team Kylie.

We hear about Katie’s baptism of fire of joining the Gnarls Barkley band and the immediate introduction to the industries highs and lows. The subconscious vocal ghosting requirements when audition and working with Lily Allen. The parallels of working as backing vocalist & lead vocalist on the same gig with Rapper Professor Green and how she learned to bespoke her voice to suit a plethora of male and female singers. She shares her experiences of joining team Leona, team Kylie and touring the world with Adele.

This episode covers many of our experiences including our first time in a rehearsal studio, touring and performing in stadiums, arenas, theatres and festivals. How we prepare for learning a whole set in record time and what advice we would you give to anyone wanting to start a career in the music industry as a backing vocalist.

We hope this gives you some valuable insight and helps you in your own preparation. 

Until next time, thank you and stay safe.
