We warm up our voices so we can keep them healthy, sound our best and protect against damage. Warming up your voice will allow you to sing better and extend your range comfortably. It is absolutely necessary to always warm up before singing.

What happens if you sing without warming up?

Vocal warmups do exactly that.

The truth is that singing without proper technique can be straining on your vocal folds. Over time, straining your vocal folds with poor technique and poor breath support can cause vocal weakness and can also potentially lead to damage.

Is it bad to not warm up before singing?

Warmups prepare your voice for the vocal event that is singing. When you sing something challenging in a performance without adequately warming up, you run the risk of damaging your voice and really hurting yourself.
