We've had a problem finding a vocalist. We have not been lucky yet to find the one. I think the problem is that the three of us have such a pedigree of vocalist, that if we come out with someone that's not good we'll obviously be slated!
I felt a little uncomfortable because, when I went in to the military, I was the main male vocalist they had and when I came out they had like two or three vocalists. Otis came in when I was in the military, too.
Eye was a great discovery. He is one of the great vocalists of all time.
My father was a stone mason, and a talented amateur pianist and vocalist.
I've always had a soft spot for Phil Collins. He's a great vocalist.
One of my biggest musical influences is definitely Ella Fitzgerald as a vocalist.
Brandy is one of my favorite vocalists. Jay-Z is my favorite emcee outside of Biggie.
I get to focus on being a musician sometimes, and I get to focus on being a vocalist sometimes.
It's amazing to hear, as a voice matures and then starts to decline, what kind of emotion is still conveyed by a really good vocalist.
I've always been at war with the guitar. All vocalists are fighting a war with the electric rhythm guitar.
I've often cringed when I heard myself described as a jazz singer. I've always thought of myself as a jazz vocalist.
I've been listening to a new band called Wolf Alice, courtesy of my son. The vocalist, Ellie Rowsell, has a gorgeous voice.
A lot of people said to me, 'Enough with the guest vocalists for a while. We want to hear the Mexican play the guitar!'
Basically, I'm a musical vocalist, but I do voiceover stuff as a sideline, like plumbing or something.
We used to have a main female vocalist. But she had a baby. Now we do the singing ourselves.
I progressed through so many different styles of music through my teen years, both as a player and a vocalist, particularly the jazz and pop of the early 20th Century.
I used to sing at funeral homes for families that didn't have a vocalist. I didn't get paid. I needed to sing.
One of my first favorite records was the debut Garbage album, which I heard when I was very young. Shirley Manson is a great female vocalist and performer and I admire her for that.
A bass player has to think and play like a bass player. A drummer has to play and think like a drummer, and stay out of the way of the vocalist. The guitar player has to respect everybody else.
My grandma said - when I was really young and I'd sing along to the radio - why do you sing in an American accent? I guess it was because a lot of the music I was listening to had American vocalists.
As far as female vocalists, I love Heart, Joan Jett, Courtney Love, Laura Branigan, Linda Ronstadt, Barbra Streisand - or going back to when I was a child, Aileen Quinn, the original Annie.
