  1. DEVELOP GOOD SINGING TECHNIQUE DREW MOTTINGER Sing with the right vocal techniques

  2. Drew Mottinger's music has appeared in movies, ad campaigns, television shows and more. The Drew Mottinger sound is contemplative, catchy, and upbeat about the triumph of the human spirit.

  3. When a professional musician practices their instrument, they go through scales (or rudiments) repeatedly, working hard to improve their technique. Set yourself a dedicated practice or warm-up regime for each day to burn those scales into your memory. 1. PRACTICE TECHNIQUES

  4. 2. SET YOURSELF GOALS Set yourself realistic targets at every opportunity and work towards them, whether that’s learning a certain scale by heart during one practice, or mastering a full song by the end of the week.

  5. 3. PATIENCE Perhaps the most important quality in a musician looking to perfect their instrument is patience, especially if you’re just starting out. No one becomes a virtuoso overnight, so if you hit a wall, don’t worry, just keep going until you get it right. It takes a lot of time and effort to be a truly great musician.

  6. 4. KEEP IT FUN While it’s important to work on your scales and other (more boring) techniques - don't forget to keep your practice sessions fun! Learn your favourite songs and work on new material around your more regimented exercises to make sure you feel fresh and enthusiastic about your instrument.

  7. The worst thing for a musician is when playing becomes a chore, rather than an enjoyable experience.

  8. 5.KNOW WHAT KEY YOU’RE IN Learning scales can help you to stay in key during a jamming session. As the more experienced musicians among you will know, each musical scale focuses around a specific key. So, the more scales you know, the better you’ll be at staying in key, improvising on a track, and making sure you sound great playing alongside other musicians.
