Gwen's Techniques?
Does anyone know if G has even mentioned any Techniques she uses when singing? If anyone could post them or a link to them that would be helpful.

It's for a college assignment I'm doing :)

Re: Gwen's Techniques?
she warms up by singing with gabe and stephen when she puts her makeup on and i think she drinks tea. (?)

Yeah,this older article mentioned vocal exercises she used to do,I don't know if she does them anymore,though:

''Her voice is tired – she had a problem with nodes last year – so for a while she quietly does vocal exercises that sound like gargling and bees buzzing. She’s a bit embarrassed; I try hard not to laugh.''

Re: Gwen's Techniques?
You can also see her warming up in her solo tour on one of the Gwen webisodes for LAMB tour. Warming up is obviously ordinary....every singer does it so its not something good to elaborate on really. I'd say her vibrato is the key technique that distinguishes her from other singers. She does regular vibrato's and a "twill" which is a faster vibrato...the ones you hear a lot on no doubt songs like trapped in a box, just a girl...end it on this...ect. She also has a tendency to do a lot of jazzy-style vocals like Bathwater, Hella Good and Your so Foxy. Very deep, seductive and smooth. Her voice is definately more full than airy.

Re: Gwen's Techniques?
What Gwen does at 3:37 in this video (I guess that is the vibrato thing you guys have mentioned?) never ceases to amaze me.  That probably doesn't really help but I wanted to put it out there hahah

Re: Gwen's Techniques?
I believe she has worked with Lis Lewis. I think she helped Gwen after she was having some voice issues. I also read something about it on the forum.
