HOW TO SING LIKE BILLIE EILISH
Singing softly can be as difficult as singing powerfully the correct way. Billie Eilish likes to sing in a softer tone in many of her songs. To create a light and airy sound involves the placement of sound and of course, diaphragm and breath control.
Recently, one of my clients was trying to sing softer by (what sounded like) breathing in air into the back of her mouth. This is not the way to do. It sounded almost like she was inhaling the air instead of exhaling. For a softer tone, you want to slightly lift the soft palate and feel the air toward the front of your mouth, close to the back of your (upper) front teeth. Placing the sound toward the front, of the roof of your mouth. You should feel resonance in the sinus mask.
It is also important to control the release of air when singing softly. This involves breath and diaphragm support. It’s all about control, using the muscles in your core (the stomach muscles and the muscles around your rib cage). Tighten them as your release the air while you sing.
Listen to Billie Eilish sing “What Was I Made For” as she sings softly throughout the song. She has perfect control while singing this song.
