Singing concept taught by Eli

Jack learned 3 days ago

In a vocal coaching session, Eli Nelson guided Jack Marcella in refining his singing by concentrating on diaphragm engagement, throat relaxation, and consistent pitch control, especially during recording. They worked on applying these techniques to a song Jack was recording and discussed strategies for vocal health, including hydration and rest. Eli assigned Jack homework to practice the song's melody on a keyboard to improve pitch accuracy.
