Singing like a pro means getting our vowels to align so that they all resonate similarly.  Sometimes that means using another vowel to get the shape of the aural cavity ready and then switching to the one in question.  In this video, I share one of my tips about getting the /u/ (sounds like the vowels in the word 'you') to focus and resonate properly.

Thanks for watching!
