Try out the ‘Fried Egg Theory’ of singing growth!

By Selena, 09/01/2025, Category:Confidence and Mindset, Singing with freedom and creativity, Unlock your vocal potential

We all want free, expressive singing voices, right?

The ability to let go, to let your sound flow, to allow your voice to come out in all its magnificent fullness and potential. Well, this is what I've been helping singers and aspiring singers to do for the last 25 years.

At first, with little skill but lots of enthusiasm, I led singing groups of all kinds, from about 1995 to 2000 around the West Country.

Then, having acquired superb tools, techniques, knowledge and skill through holistic training courses, I've been a full time singing group leader and vocal coach since 2011, developing my powerful methods to give singers enjoyable, transformational experiences.

And that's where this quirky angle on singing has come from.

So - on to it- the Fried Egg Theory of singing growth 😊

This is a liberating approach I've used for many years, and I encourage you to try it out!

The ‘yoke’ is your ‘beautiful voice’, your skilled, honed, developed voice... your singing capabilities that produce the most attractive and widely admired qualities of your voice.

Most people want this, right?
And I'm right behind them to achieve it, for sure.

The ‘white’ is everything else about your voice... not even just your singing voice; but the weird bits, the ugly sounds, the authentic vocalizations with no names.

  • It includes grunting, groaning, screaming, crying, yelping, wailing, whooping.
  • It includes rough tone, creaking, squeaking, yawning, sighing.
  • It includes the less desirable parts of the singing voice, like strain or empty, gravelly tones, dark monster sounds and penetrating nasality.
  • It includes all the weird and wonderful sounds we make during vocal warm-ups. And more.

This is the FULL SCOPE of your voice. Your WILD voice.

So to enable the ‘yoke’ qualities to be at their best, to emerge and develop with ease...

... we need to let ourselves to explore the white zone. (whilst making sure we don't hurt ourselves).

In other words, let your ugly, weird and wacky voice feed your ‘best voice’; because what's in the white area comes from unhindered, free emotional expression.

 🔥 >>>It's the source of energy, power, self acceptance, self confidence and flow in your voicing. It releases unconscious tension and hidden emotions, from your body, mind and spirit, through the voice.

So when we give ourselves permission to explore all that, we liberate ourselves and tap into authenticity in our singing. AND it wakes up many parts of your vocal anatomy, making them more flexible so they can do your bidding.

Does this all make sense to you?

Where appropriate, I delve into this process with my singing students, and they all say how valuable and freeing it is.

So I encourage you to try it out.

Find a safe space where you can make sound unhindered, and vocalize to your heart's content.

Eventually it might lead to some actual singing, but don't make that a pressure. Let it go where it wants.

It will feed your voice both straight away and in the long term.

Give it a try. See how exploring your ‘wild voice’ feeds your ‘public voice’, the voice you choose to let others hear.

Let me know how it goes. Or if you feel if you feel you need some support and guidance to enter these unfamiliar dimensions, you're welcome to book a session with me.

I look forward to helping you discover your full, wild voice, and your fine-tuned voice. They both have their value and power.
