“I have never studied voice. I’ve learned to sing logically, on my own. Jaime Vendera gave me a copy of RAISE YOUR VOICE while I was touring with RA. Being on the road, I haven’t had the chance to implement any of the techniques in RAISE YOUR VOICE, but I really liked the book!

-Sahaj Ticotin-Sahaj is lead singer of the band RA. RA’s debut CD was released in 2002. RA had success nationwide with the single’s “Do You Call My Name” and “Rectifier”.

Sahaj liked RAISE YOUR VOICE so well that I was recently granted permission to use the song “SKY” from their debut CD “FROM ONE” in the book!

"Having been a singer for nearly 40 years, I didn't know how much to expect when I read this book. I was instantly surprised to learn that I had MUCH to learn. His explanations were very easy to understand and his vocal exercises improved my vocal range very quickly. I highly recommend this book!"

I’ve been singing as long as I can remember and I have always felt pretty good about my singing voice. When I took lessons from Jaime, he helped to teach me to pay more attention to my voice. When I actually started listening, I couldn’t believe to changes! I noticed that I could be lazy at times, but that all changed.


When I read RAISE YOUR VOICE I really learned a lot about my instrument, especially how to care and protect my voice. I like to party with my friends, but now I realize what an effect drinking and smoking have had on my voice. Besides, I could never fool Jaime when we had a voice lesson and I was hung over. He ALWAYS let me know. I’m very thankful for his guidance. By changing the way I look at my voice and treating my voice with respect, by not drinking and smoking, I have improved my voice tremendously.

I can’t believe the changes in my voice! He had me hitting notes in the very 1st lesson I never thought was possible. His exercises are amazing. There is so much that goes into singing that I didn’t realize. I had band practice right after my 1st lesson and my band was like “ Man, your voice sounds great. What are you doing different?” I told them about Jaime Vendera and his techniques. They were totally blown away by what I told them I had learned. I was able to sing all night without losing my voice.

After several lessons, I convinced Jaime to let me read his book. The voice lessons were just the tip of the iceberg. RAISE YOUR VOICE has so much information, you could read it 100 times and learn something new each time!

A couple of years ago I was working in a music store when I ran into a guy looking through the Judas Priest CDs. Just by chance, I happened to say, “Man I’d kill to be able to sing like that!” So the guy sort of looked at me and said, “ Oh yeah? You should come buy and try my program sometime. I guarantee you won’t have to kill anyone.” Well, that guy was Jaime Vendera, and less than a year later I was auditioning for bands…singing Judas Priest songs.

RAISE YOUR VOICE is the real deal. Using the Falsetto Slide, Transcending Tone, and The Siren exercises will improve your voice exponentially, if you are willing to put the work in. Within the 1st two months of using Jaime’s exercises I had increased my full voice range by four notes, while working up to a Soprano high C in my falsetto register.

So if you are as desperate to improve your voice as I was, stop dreaming and start reading “Raise Your Voice” right now!

I really liked RAISE YOUR VOICE. It was instructional and inspirational. It gave me ideas I have never thought of before and it was easy for the layman.

RAISE YOUR VOICE was absolutely the most surprising thing I have read in a long time. As an information collector, I was amazed at how many facts and tips this manual provided. I have never been able to sing well enough to not feel like I was torturing those around me, so reading vocal books was not a high priority on my list. Thank God that I stumbled across Jaime’s Manual because I know more now about the voice and its terminology than ever before, even things I didn’t realize I wanted to know about were in this manual.

I had never really thought of the voice as an instrument before I read RAISE YOUR VOICE either. I always thought there would never be a way to make my screeching vocal-lacked abilities work well with a song, but with a little time and effort and the help of this manual, I have improved my voice enough so that when I am singing in the car or the shower, I don’t feel like I am skinning a cat, and with a little more instruction, hopefully I can take the next step…karaoke bar!

Hey Jaime,
Just wanted to say I took a peek at a few pages of your book. Interesting stuff there! You obviously did a lot of research. Well done.

Jaime,

I’ve skimmed through your book and I must say it looks good! I can tell you’ve done your homework. When I get a chance to read it thoroughly, I’ll give you my honest opinion. Whether you want it or not!

Jaime,

I skimmed thru the information in Raise Your Voice and I am impressed. I really thank God for teachers that have their students best interests at heart and aren't in to just try{ing} to make a buck. Hopefully I would like to take some lessons with you if you are ever in the DC/MD/VA area.

Thanks,

Anthony Howden

Message: Hi there!

Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to Jaime for writing such an incredible book about the voice, it´s great!!!! As a lot of people out there I´ve seen a lot of methods but this one is the best by far. The reading is very easy, with so many graphics and clear explanations, and the exercises work from the beggining, plus the audio files are the ones I´ve always wanted to hear, I mean, real examples of what the teacher wants you to learn.

Reading this book I have the feeling that the voice is not a well known instrument even for many professional vocalists, so I would reccomend everybody, from begginers to professionals, to read it with the interest it deserves...the result will be a lifetime of vocal health and singing without a problem.

I think the focusing of "Raise your voice" is that, you know: Everyone can learn to sing without a problem, in any style, and you can always improve your voice, there´s no limits.

So, after seeing all the methods that for example mentioned Manolito Mistiq on his post I can say this book is beyond all of them, it puts you right on stage full of confidance. It seems at last the video "Vocal Power" has a book at the same level, which is cool!

Thanks again to Jaime, a REAL teacher. Take care,

Caesar.

Hey everyone, this book really does kick ass and Jaime is a great guy. It’s amazing actually being able to email someone with this much knowledge and get a response. I have been singing for about a year. I have really had no formal training or vocal teacher but this has helped me learn much about my voice. So far, I have been able to hold out 20-30 second screams and go back into singing just fine. My range has become very strong. I now sing from a G3 to a A5, and I can go into the 6's and 7's in falsetto.

What Jaime has is Gold. This is literally been the most useful thing I have ever bought. You will actually be able to feel the muscle power in your voice. Thanks a lot Jaime, hopefully we will get signed one day and I’ll reach 3 octaves and you will interview us. Then you'll ask how did you learn to sing, and I’ll say, reading "Raise your Voice" and a few slippery elms.

Thanks Jamie!

Dillon E, Lead Singer, Valience

Jaime,

Just got your Raise Your Voice & browsed through it already.... All I can say is that I REALLY LOVE IT man !!! The manual is almost perfect & easy to understand...

THE SIREN exercise is my favorite... Keep up your good work. It definitely will benefit all vocalists out there... I hope you can visit my country one day!!!

TQ - Nizam Naseri,(from Kuala Lumpur, MALAYSIA)

It's an amazing book! With Jaime's lessons, I've learned to sing clearer, more powerful and I've learned "the raspy" voice in just 3 weeks! If you really want to learn how to sing great, then this is the book for you. It's true what Jaime says: Anybody can sing! It's like playing an instrument: you just have to train to be better!

I was just about to buy this book, when Jaime contacted me and told me that I was one of 3 lucky winners! I didn't realize how lucky I've been until I started reading this book. It explains exactly how you should sing, and how it feels when you're doing it right. It also contains a perfect warm-up, which you can read on the "free lessons" link at The Voice Connection. I just want to say: Thank you Jaime, for teaching me (and many others) how to sing!

Jamie,

Hey, I just wanted to say THANK YOU for all of the help that you have given me! We have a couple of songs where I wanted to challenge myself and try to reach notes that are a little difficult for me to hit. When we first came out with the songs, the notes weren't very hard to reach- a challenge, but reachable. As we played out more and more, it seemed that I was having more difficulty getting up to those notes and, it soon got to the point where I just cracked all over the place when I tried to hit them.

Then I was introduced to you, and you introduced me to your Vocal Stress Release section of your book. The exercises not only are helping me to strengthen my voice, I can now sing louder and higher than I used to, and with less effort so I can sing longer and hold out notes longer as well.

Thank you very much for all your help- I can now hit those once unreachable notes every time!!!

Seth Kelley, Lead Singer, CRUTCH

Message: I finally have the book, had it for a week now and wow there is a lot of stuff to read. But from just doing this stuff I've already seen immediate improvement in a lot of things, especially my stamina. I'm up to the point where I can do nothing but all of those new hard metal screaming songs for like 3 hours straight, and still be able to sing my heart out without cracking and no strain to hit any of my higher register stuff. Really cool. I'm now currently practicing 4-5 hours a day, unless I just can't fit it in, then I get in what I can. But I just want to thank you Jaime for your book, and hopefully someday I might get semi famous or something and you can interview me, and I'll give all credit to you and your awesome ways of teaching. Hehe. Anyways, I'm getting quite ahead of myself since I'm only 19. Take care for now, and thanks again.

~Brian

Subject: Training Bootcamp with Jamie
Name:260 Phil Tayler-singer/songwriter-future leaders of the world
Date Posted: May 30, 05 - 10:24 PM

Message: Whatsup everyone! Just spent a couple days training with Jamie now that I'm done touring for a while and he's helped me alot. We've been working on stregthening my voice and building endurance. For anyone who knows my music, it takes extreme concentration and training to be able to perform night after night at the intensity level I do. The whole "dry rasp" vocal style can be very taxing at times and seemingly impossible to maintain performing 100% on the road. So when I was introduced to Jamie I was wondering what he could do to help to make my job easier and more fun really. First of all the best thing about him is that he's actually into rock music. He's knowledgeable in the genre that he's teaching so he knows how to help students acquire what their looking for. I've been to several vocal coaches and most of them don't sing rock, never did, and don't really respect it as a vocal style or valid art form, seeing as it is seemingly harmfull to the natural state of the human voice.Not that I'm knockin my other coaches cuz they have helped me a lot too, but it's just easier for me to relate off the bat you know? Anyways he actually hits the notes the same way i do, but also with the same grit and way higher, so immediately I had respect for what he would teach me and knew he could help. We went through a bunch of warm-up exercises for falsetto and normal voice, all with the intent of bridging these as one voice.Then adding the grit towards the end of the warmups after my voice was loose. At first this was really hard, building my upper register with a full voice and grit, instead of the partial falsetto I was using before on the screams.But after a few hours of practice I was starting to feel an increase in range and a sense of comfort in the upper range I was foriegn too. This was really apparent when we practised the method to some of the songs on my album "LVLIV"(in stores now).I was really excited to see that I could hit the same notes with the same grit without straining my voice or hurting afterward. Although I couldn't hit all the notes perfect with this method right away, I can tell that with serious dedication and daily practise, this method is going to save me a lot of hardship in the future.He has really opened my eyes to new approach to my music that is more healthy and higher quality vocally as well cuz I'm in more control of my voice. So thanx alot for helping me out Jamie!I'm writing new songs for the next Future Leaders of the World album right now and also getting new members seeing as the others decided to part ways. I'm excited about the changes in my career and am happy that Jamie is a part of them. Check out our websites www.flow247.com for CD's clothes, merchandise and updates as well as www.futureleadersoftheworld.com to chat with fans and see what I'm up to. Jamie's the real deal and he can seriously help you be a rock singer if your dedicated so check him out. I gotta lotta work to do now so I gotta go. Peace out!
