The Secret to a Great Rock Voice? Soul Music.

Arvid Hällagård of Greenleaf reveals the secret origins of his powerful rock voice: imitating the legendary soul singers from his dad's record collection. From the age of six, before he was a rock frontman, he was a kid devouring his dad's 70s rock and soul records. He shares how trying to imitate the "very good Black singers" and rock legends like Led Zeppelin became the foundation of his vocal style. It's a fantastic look at how the music we grow up with shapes us as artists. Who was the first singer you ever tried to imitate?
