Vocal Profile: Adam Lambert

Adam Lambert

Vocal Type: Tenor
Vocal Range: 3 Octaves and a semitone B2-B5
Whistle Register: No
Vocal Strengths: Adam Lambert has expert control over his instrument, producing notes that are well supported, and achieved via great technique. He is capable of singing complex melisma and is able to hold notes for periods of time without wavering in pitch or tone, seemingly effortlessly.  He is an expert at mixing his voice so that the breaks between the registers aren't identifiable, and the effect of this is  that it makes the voice sound almost limitless.



The lower range is dark and weighty, with a breathy quality to it in its lowest extremes. However it begins to solidify, and gain a more confident tone, quickly as it rises. 

The midrange is solid, of medium weight and rounded. It can be used with  a raspier, edgier texture- verses of Whataya Want From Me- or can be made sweeter, warmer and softer-A Loaded Smile- depending on what is called for. It leads fluently into the belting range.

The belting range is Adam Lambert's strongest suit. The voice possesses an elastic quality that allows it to  stretch high up into the fifth octave and though the tone is light- when compared to  the lower range- it's resonant, clear, bright and truly impressive. The upper fifth octave notes can be reached by mixing with the head voice, to create a strong, fuller tone or they can be sung in a rocky, piercing falsetto-Music Again 0.49- that is markedly contrasting to the breathy, sweet falsetto many males utilise.These notes can be further polished by the addition of his quick vibrato.

Adam Lambert also has a robust and piercing head voice, that, like the rest of his range, displays excellent dynamics and control.

Vocal Weaknesses: Adam Lambert's lower range lacks the resonance and ease of the rest of his range.
