here is a video. look at the mouth position. the key is keeping the upper lips down as much as possible, that moves the soft palette up. Richard Fredricks - National AnthemRichard Fredricks sings Granada
Once the throat tightens up, you're a goner. Meanwhile if this chick goes anywhere at at she'll have polyps before she finishes a whole tour. She's singing from her throat, and not from her diaphragm.

rich, have you ever thought of changing the position of your soft palate to get more projection when singing? you can make you sinuses resonate if you raise the soft palate, and that improves projection a whole lot. it is amazing that almost all pop/rock singers sing from the throat, limiting their projection greatly. one of my clients teaches singing, he can sing over a p.a. no problem, and without any effort. he also doesn't use much air, he blows most of the air out before starting the phrase. his whole facial bone structure becomes a speaker that vibrates, a much more effective instrument than using the throat.

I've done pretty well at embracing the relaxed throat (hmmm, that didn't come out right.) And I can add grit without hurting myself.It would be cool to eliminate the break between chest voice and head voice.
