“You’re singing through your nose.” Some singers hear this as the worst critique possible. Others are told it’s exactly what they should do. So which is it—wrong, right, or something in between?
In this episode of The Voice Science Podcast, Drew (with script by Timothy Wilds) untangles the confusion around nasality, nasal resonance, and the role of your nose in shaping vocal sound. You’ll learn:
- The difference between nasality, nasalance, and “nasal resonance”
- How the velum and velopharyngeal port actually control nasal sound
- Why some styles (folk, country, R&B, musical theatre) lean on nasality—and others avoid it
- What’s really going on when singers talk about “mask resonance”
- Whether nasal resonance adds power, or just muddiness, to your singing
By the end, you’ll know when nasal sound can be a stylistic choice, when it gets in the way, and how to manage it with intention.
🎧 Listen in, and keep singing smart.
