Millie(me)-singer -pianist of somebody I use to know
For my individual role I am a singer and at first I wasn’t confident with my voice, I couldn’t really control the tone or pitches of my voice. As we started to work on our first song “somebody I use to know” I wasn’t confident singing that songs because its not the normal octave, I would sing so it took some practice for me to be able to sing higher than I normally do but working with the band and they pushed me so I started to be more confident in my self and was able to sing in a higher octave. For our second song “kids” i felt a bit more confident in my voice and I was starting to be able to control and be able to sing in different pitches if necessary , but kids was easier for me to sing and control , it was kind of hard at first because I didn’t know the song but I learnt it pretty quickly , it was also more my vocal range so it was a lot easier to sing and I liked the song because I was able to control my voice a lot more and I seemed to have a bit more confidence . but it took time on both songs because me and tom (my singing partner) had to figure out the harmonise but we was able to pick it up easily . I also had to learn certain keys on the piano in a certain amount of time. It was confusing at first but once I knew how to do it, I could just instantly play it.
Tom- singer partner-pianist of kids.
For Toms individual role he is a singer at first when we was learning “somebody I use to know his voice was a little shaken and wasn’t as confident but as we got to know” each other and each other ranges his voice sound a lot better. His confidence started to peak after the 1st practice performance . He has the best stage presentation , he makes it look like it so easier and you couldn’t tell that he was nervous . Then when we was learning “kids” it seemed a bit harder for him because he got told to go an octave higher which he didn’t seem to like but more he practiced the more it sounded better and he did great , it was also easier to harmonize with him. Tom also learnt piano for this song and he instantly knew how to play it. Once we put it all together it sounded great.
Adam- drummer
For Adams individual role he is the drummer of our band and when he was learning the drums of “somebody I used to know” he learnt it pretty quickly he only thing that he needed to work on was timing and the same with “kids” he played really well and kept everyone in time. Ben- guitarist For Bens individual when he was learning “somebody I use to know” and “kids” he needed to work on bar chords and timing , he struggled a little bit but he rehearsed none stop and it payed off, he was able to play the songs back to back without messing up and keeping the timing right.
Isaac- bassist
For Isaacs individual when he was learning the songs it was quite hard for him because he doesn’t play base and he needed to work on his chords and timing because he kept the beat up. At the end he was able to play both songs back to back without any mistakes and if mistakes was made for him he would just play it off and not make it obvious like any of us.
