Hot Takes & High Notes
Hot Takes & High Notes is where the art and science of voice collide, served with a side of unapologetic expert opinion and a whole lot of glee!
Whether you're a voice pro, a singer, a teacher, a colleague, a client, or just an incurably curious human, this is your go-to spot for mythbusting, explanations, research, vocal geekery, and brutally honest takes on what actually works in voice training. 🎶✨
Hi, I’m Melanie Tapson! I'm a clinical singing voice therapist, a vocal health educator, a professional singer, a voice teacher, and a full-time vocal detective! I help singers, speakers, and voice pros decode the mysteries of the human voice with a mix of science, strategy, and a lot of straight talk. I believe in evidence-based voice care, calling out nonsense, and making learning about the voice ridiculously fun. If you’re here for clarity, confidence, and a little chaos, you’re in the right place. 🎤🔥
