The issue is that when i&#8217;m moving my head around it causes the mic volume to be inconsistent <br><br>One thing I would improve for myself is to sing louder and project my voice more while keeping the same octave throughout out the song. At the start of the rehearsal I was quiet and didn&#8217;t use the right octave which I corrected in the second line, I would like to improve and stay consistent throughout the whole song next time.<br><br>For improvement for the band we should learn how to do the bridge and how to add our own implements into it and know which instruments we should time a drop for it, for instance maybe only keys, bass and drums play through it.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"James Arthur - Hold On We&#039;re Going Home (Drake cover) | 3FM Live\" width=\"580\" height=\"435\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XOcDnEdONsc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
