“So fill to me the parting glass, good night and joy be with you all…” ????✨

In today’s episode, Abram Poliakoff and Camille Van Niekerk break down one of the most underrated parts of becoming a better singer: stylizing your song. If you’ve ever wondered how pro singers add riffs, runs, phrasing twists, vowel tweaks, and emotional depth to a melody—this conversation is GOLD.

They dig into:
???? How to riff without overdoing it
???? Why folk songs like this Irish/Scottish classic are perfect stylization practice
???? Using vibrato, vocal fry, breathiness & onsets intentionally
???? When to add riffs so they enhance the melody, not drown it
???? Backphrasing, rubato, and timing choices that make your voice sound expressive—not chaotic
???? How different artists (Hozier, Ed Sheeran, Waylon Jennings, etc.) all cover the same song uniquely
???? Why stylization is part practice, part instinct… and totally learnable

If you’ve ever thought “riffs just don’t come naturally to me,” this is your sign: they’re skills, not magic tricks. And YOU can learn them with the right breakdowns.

???? Question of the day:
Which version of “The Parting Glass” lives in YOUR head? Hozier? Ed Sheeran? Traditional folk? Drop your favorite cover (or your own!) in the comments!

???? And if you heard that tasty riff Abram used… do you want a slowed-down tutorial? Let us know ⬇️
