Thanks for doing this, it is a motivation for me to try harder on the vocal side of things, and I really enjoyed listening!

Yep, think that sums it up. The dynamic flow is controlled by the vocals and the stereo electric guitars. The vocals go from solo to harmony 3rds to harmony octaves to doubled lead vocals. Only in the final chorus (and the outro) are there more than two voices. The stereo electric guitars are off on the verses and on for the choruses and outro. It's all really simple but are examples of approaches that can be effective in creating interest and building dynamics in contemporary song forms.

When I'm going to post a vocal I do spend more time getting the right take, correcting mistakes, addressing sibilance, etc. Figured if I'm going to ask folks to listen I can at least make it as pleasant as possible. Ha!

You've got a really nice voice, especially for the genres I hear you posting, and excellent phrasing. Am looking forward to hearing more from you. smile

Too many guitars (is that a thing?)
