Bruno Mars Vocal Training – Tips and Tricks

How to sing like bruno mars

Before we dive in the tips and tricks, you must understand that you can’t fully imitate a singer’s voice.

Everyone has a different voice; therefore, it is not possible to sing exactly like someone.

Yeah, you can impersonate him by picking up his techniques of singing but you can’t be exactly like him.

Being inspired by a singer is a normal thing and if you want to learn to sing like Bruno Mars due to this reason then you are at the right place.

Let’s learn some tricks and techniques that Bruno Mars uses in his singing!

Understanding His Voice

Bruno Mars doesn’t sing in his chest voice or head voice all the time.

Neither does he switch between them.

What he does is that he sings in a mixed voice most of the time.

That’s one of the things that makes Bruno Mars so special and unique. 

Bruno Mars Highest Note – Mixing the Voice

For this technique, you will need to find your middle voice.

You can’t shout or whisper, you have to find a balance between your chest and head voice.

You have to mix them both but it is not easy.

There are many ways to sing like this but the easiest way is to imagine that you are crying and sing in that voice. 

To make it simpler and easier, you can first start talking in a crying voice and a normal volume.

Slowly you can increase your volume and talk that way for a while.

After you do this for a while, you can start singing that way. 

Sing in a crying voice but in a normal volume at first.

When you think you should increase your volume now because you are going well, increase it and continue to sing.

Practice this technique until you master it.

Mixing the Voice Better

After practicing the above technique, it is time to go further and become professional at it. 

To mix your voice better, you can mix the voice coming out from three resonators.

Your three resonators are your throat, nasal and mouth.

Follow the steps mentioned below to mix your voice:

  • First sing with your throat voice normally. 
  • Then try to sing with your nasal voice too and mix both of them together. 
  • Now, try to shape your mouth like Bruno Mars does. You can see his live performances to learn how he makes his mouth. 

Keep Your Body Parts Relaxed

It is important to keep your body parts relaxed if you want to sing so loudly and bluntly like Bruno Mars.

The most important body parts that should be relaxed are your shoulders, neck and jaw. 

As your throat voice is related to your neck area, keeping it relaxed is very important.

Before singing, you can try to do a few neck exercises like rolling your neck and you will be good to go.

To relax your jaw, you can chew on to something like a bubble gum before singing to help the muscles relax. 

When all these muscles and body parts are relaxed, you will notice a huge improvement in your voice.

It will become easier for you to sing like Bruno Mars.
