What should singers do before a long rehearsal to avoid fading by the end?
Long rehearsals can be rough on vocals, especially if the room is loud and everyone slowly turns up. I have seen singers sound great for the first hour and then start pushing harder as their voice gets tired.
What warm-ups, habits, or band setup choices help keep vocals healthy across a full rehearsal? I am also curious how much of it is technique versus simply getting the band to control stage volume.
