Nate Hunt - PRESHOW RITUALS

In this Preshow Rituals segment, the alternative pop artist, Nate Hunt, reveals what he does before taking the stage. You can check out the rituals below:

I do find warming up the voice before the show helps relieve some of the nerves. My go-to warmups are vocal frying, lip rolls, and diaphragm exercises. Together, they seem to relax the vocal cords and allow more freedom when singing, which is super helpful when you have nervousness to contend with.

I’ll make sure a few days before the gig that the set is buttoned up. So I’ll run it a few times, listen back, and make sure everything’s sounding good. But then I like to take a bit of time away, as I want to try and keep things as fresh as possible. An hour or two before the show, I like to calm the mind and be in more of a relaxed but focused state—meditation works for me, but there are lots of techniques and things that can help.
