How do you prepare/warmup to sing for a whole show?

I sing in the car on the way to the event. I’m usually guilty of not warming up my voice enough, and I’m sure I’ll be paying for that neglect soon if I don’t change my ways.

What is your drink of choice on a show night?

Water. I cannot drink alcohol if I want to sing well.

What’s your remedy when your voice is gone and the show is about to start?

Throat coat tea with lemon and honey.

What singers inspire you?

Arnel Pineda of Journey, Prince, Michael Jackson, Luther Vandross, Justin Timberlake

What song has challenged you the most?

FunDMC’s mashup of Baby Got Back and I Believe in a Thing Called Love. Take 10’s James Brown medley. Novocaine’s cover of Pink’s “Who Knew”.
