Adam Buchanan’s unique bubbling technique keeps his voice in top shape

Adam Buchanan possesses an incredible voice with remarkable vocal prowess. What sets him apart even further is his unique approach to maintaining vocal control which involves straw bubbling. This specialized technique, taught to him by his mentor Kath Williams, plays a key role in his daily routine.

Before starting his day, Adam practices straw bubbling, which helps keep his notes steady and strengthens his diaphragm control. This technique minimizes any quivering in his voice, ensuring consistency. The process involves blowing into a straw placed in a container of water, creating resistance. This resistance forces his vocal muscles to work harder, improving endurance and allowing him to sustain notes effortlessly, even when not actively singing.
