As a session singer myself, and former talent booking agent for the William Morris Agency, I can attest to the number of sessions that I have personally sung on where I wondered why some of the singers were even invited – And yet other sessions, and the vast majority, where it’s a pleasure to be singing with the folks behind the mic. I can honestly tell you that through the years of singing sessions, and I’ve sung on a quite a few, from Fox TV, UPN Station ID’s to O’Charley’s, that there are key ingredients that make up session singers in general. Session singers in the bigger picture, have a completely different role from the lead singer, yet they are tied integrally to one another. In one sense, the session singers create their own vision and picture, but ultimately they must tie directly to and enhance the lead vocal.

Ever listen to a song and go “man is this hot”, because the BGV’s (background vocals) sounded so good, even though the actual song was fair to begin with. That’s what really good session singers can do for an otherwise fair to mediocre song. This is why getting into session singing in general is not the easiest thing to do as well. |
