Vocal additives in the studio.

16
my studio shares the building with a spice warehouse.
the guy who runs it is also a blues singer.

he's shown me these 2 remedies that, granted, can't work miracles in lost situations- but definitely save a distressed voice long enough to finish the session. at least 7-8 times out of 10:

-sage tea. just pure sage steeped in hot water. gargling is preferable- but if the patient needs to drink it, have them wait until its lukewarm. extremely hot or extremely cold anything is bad for vocal chords as a rule. room temprature liquids are best for the entire session.

-whorehound. it's these wierd lozenge things that are like a Fisherman's Friend type-of-deal, but way stronger. if a singer starts feeling strained, i usually have him/her have one once an hour. plus they love feeling cool telling people they sucked on something called a whorehound!
