How To Sing Like Layne Staley - Alice In Chains - Man In The Box - Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy
I had the opportunity to see Layne Staley live a couple of times and I was always impressed with how he put everything he had into his performance and left it ALL on the field.
Who else out there had the opportunity to see Layne perform live and what was your experience?
Let me know in the comments!
Layne had that real grindy kind of tone and got that great distortion through his ability to compress his air.
In this video I’ll show you how to get that same distortion as well as how you can use correct compression to avoid hurting yourself, using the KTVA method.
Here are is the full version of the song from the video:

Layne was one of a kind. Such a stunning voice filled with pain and emotion. His tone, his phrasing. He was perfect. İ can't listen to him without tearing up.
No one can sing like he did.
RİP Layne.
Spirit Animal ❤️
Chris Cornell was another favorite of mine.
pro tip : watch series on Flixzone. I've been using them for watching a lot of movies lately.
Maybe some one can not naming names that would be blasphemy till then you gotta ring them bells!😁🤘😁😎😂👌😇Hi,Ken hope you heard of me 2.🙉🙈🙊😎💩🌟
I used to live in Seattle and just the atmosphere is so depressing. Not to make a joke out of mental health but those years I lived there were the worst days of my life. Layne Truly was one of a kind.
Yes he was!
I was living up north in Vancouver a couple of years ago and visited Seattle a couple of times. I totally get what youre saying. It has a weirdly depressing vibe, don't really know how to explain it
I remember rolling into Seattle one night around '99 and the DJ said the city had just set a record of 90 straight days of rain. Pretty sure it plays into the vibe up there.
Love how you respect the talent even though the technique isn’t necessarily spot on! I see that as a mark of an experienced vocalist.
Thanks, Anthony!
I find Layne's way of singing a lot more convincing, more genuine.. Respect to Ken for explaining the difference. Most teachers would just teach you to sing the "right" way, which doesn't really give the same results. Gabriela is a legend!
Thanks for the visit, Jarda!
Totally agree with your point, that’s the difference with singing with feeling and with technique, in Lainey’s case he had both which makes him unique.
the most apt way to phrase it is Layne delivered in a very "raw" way.. in terms of the emotion he put into it, but also the way he was almost singing his throat raw lol
Been listening to a crap ton of Eddie Vedder, Layne Staley and Chris Cornell lately. Kinda ironic that this popped up. Such lovely men i absolutely admire all of them
Rock on, Lailah!
Would love to hear Gabiela sing The Rooster!!
Noted! Thanks, Lori!
When you stop and think of how many incredible musicians and people the world has lost. Many from the golden age of music in my opinion. The 90s So many erie similarities. So many tortured souls
Heart breaking, Never Enough Cowbell!
Could you do a “How to sing like” features on Jim Morrison, Eddie Vedder and Scott Weiland? Great channel Ken!
Hope to!
Hey Ken, I just wanted to drop by and thank you for everything you've done to help aspiring vocalists learn and master the craft. I'm a lifelong singer and just a week of serious practice using your videos has allowed me to use techniques I've been trying to accomplish for almost a decade. I can't even imagine how much better I would become were I able to afford your course. Thank you so much again for making music better.
My pleasure! Keep up the great work!
I appreciate you and all you do!! I always thought there was something wrong with me because I CANNOT learn without a demonstration, without trying to mimic what I'm hearing and you do a fantastic job of really describing techniques in ways that help my visualization. You really have a way with words....It's truly a gift!! You are so inspiring!! Not all ladies want to be a bubblegum pop singer, I want to rock! I love the grumbly, gravely, growling distorted noises that many people consider "unladylike". I know there's a way to do it without injury, the proof is in your singing. You have a gift and I am so grateful that you want to share it with the world. Rock on Ken!!
Happy to help, Jess!
I love her voice
It's unfortunate that others feel the need to judge. Part of the beauty of music is the freedom expression of one's thoughts and feelings through music.Those who are offended can simply choose not to listen. It's that easy. Love your channel, Ken!
True.😊
She totally nailed it! Awesome cover and awesome teaching!
Her voice is amazing! Great job💙 I'm gonna go practice
Rock on!
I know opions vary but mine is this, Layne Staley had powerful vocals
Great demonstration. I agree that open throat technique is the key for good sound and safe singing.
Željko 👍
Ken your a inspiration!
Wow! I love the way Gabriela sings this... she is like no other in a big way. Not only that but it sounds fantastic and I dig it!!! Thank you also for the in depth explanations!!!
Glad you like it!
First(I have proof). Also, how to sing like Layne Staley.
Step one: You can't.
Almost.
He had the voice of an angel. Rips right though your soul.
Exactly..
@@spiritanimal8836 Cause he was in pain.....tortured soul.
kind of sad. it was a cry for help in his songs and nobody noticed.
Very sad.
It really was I enjoyed the biography so so much I'd recommend it too anyonr
thanks ken great lesson
Awesome love the video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great, conversation around the song and the meaning!!! Thank you for this perspective!!! This spins light on this song!!!! This man was really fighting spiritually! As everyone has fought their own demons and as we all have our own spiritual battles! ESPECIALLY in the Music Industry! This is deep! THIS MAN WAS CRYING OUT FOR HELP!!! As others were passing him by...Thank you for this!! You are appreciated ESPECIALLY TODAY! If you only knew!!! This was truly a blessing watching this TODAY!
God bless you, Shawnna. I hope your day is a good one!
@@kentamplin Thank you! God Bless you too!!! Yes, it has been a HUGE BLESSING TODAY!!! Thank you for your spiritual work in the music industry! I TRULY UNDERSTAND you on these messages!!! #StayBlessed!!!
This is a really great series, and the way you present it is pragmatically helpful. I particularly like that you're not encouraging people to fully IMPERSONATE, but rather to take INSPIRATION from various other artists' techniques to apply to their own voices.
Well said! We want the "flavor" of the original artist but want to remain ourselves! Rock on!
Thanks so much for the lyric breakdown.
My pleasure, Esso!
Holy moly!! You have a voice!!!
Gabriela is amazing! What a beautifil, strong Voice ❤
Nice work ken !!!!
Thanks for listening!
Yeaa, I always enjoy when you talk about my favourite singer
Facu Simonetti 👍
This is the anthem for anyone struggling to get help with addiction. Feed my eyes is Layne representing the addict looking for hope, with the background response from the addiction demon pov sow them shut…and at the end, now they’re sewn shut, lost the addiction battle.😢
I always thought man in the box was more about being caged by society. I always found "down in a hole" to be more about addiction and depression, personally, but that's just my take.
@@theshadow6273 Its actually that way. Even the video from man in the box explains it
Amazing timbre
👍💜😀
Thank you sir! Layne Staley, and Scott Weiland are two of my favorite singers and I love singing in their style, as we have basically the same range. I can hit their high notes, but usually get fatigued fast. I'm sure I'm not doing it in a healthy way because I do a lot of it by emulating what I hear. I love the idea of taking a more open "ah" vowel as opposed to the closed "e". Really appreciate you doing this!
I hope this helps, Charlie!
@@kentamplin It really has! Thanks a million, Ken!
Layne had some powerful lyrics! His vocals were unmatched! I'm a man of faith and ppl really need to chill and at least check the actual lyrics? Dude was singing life! On Mad Season... River of Deciept hits you right between the eyes! Real life...
Thanks for weighing in, Kyle!
Awesome, both of you👏👏👏. I saw that video many times. Best regards again, from Spain
Glad you enjoyed it, Celian!
I see your video and I hit the like button.
I absolutely love your channel!!! You and your artists are so talented!!! 😍😍😍
Thank you so much, Miranda!
Awesome all I do is grunge...man your good thanks again!
My favorite KTVA cover of all time..Really awesome 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Glad to hear that, Dizzle 75!
Man, I don’t even sing, but I love watching these videos. So interesting.
So glad you're here, Ben!!
Exactly correct. This is a more complex song that most people realize.
Thank you Ken. I really enjoyed this video. I really have great memories of the whole grunge era and that music meant a whole deal to me during that time of my life. And seeing all of those incredible singers die from that era is really very sad and something that is painful for me. But I appreciate that you've done a lot of research into the genre and that you respect it for what it is. Also really fun to hear you and your female student singing in the grunge Style. Great teacher man!
I appreciate the kinds words, Michelle! Thanks for listening!
You have an amazing videos! Love watching them ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️👌
Glad you like them!
@@kentamplin You're welcome! ☺️👌
Art is not right or wrong. There is not a correct way to do it. It simply is and if it touches you that's it. Nothing else matters.
This is awesome 👌
Glad you think so!
In this video we can see when the student surpasses the teacher 😎😎😎😎😎
One of my faves to karaoke to!
Thanks! I'm happy you liked it!
Totally agree Ken.
Gabriela is crazy, as always.
Will you do How To Sing Like Devin Townsend?
Great suggestion, Emir!
Oh yeah she rocked that. Would love to see her her in concert. Ken you keep interrupting.....lol. She kept the chorus huge.......loved the explanation of the song for this guy of faith
Here is the video of just her singing, Aaron! ruclips.net/video/TbAAYAYTcf4/видео.html
I wish you were in the uk for singing lessons! You’re awesome
I do skype sessions!
YEEEEEAAAHHHHY!!! GREAT!!!
Awesome!

Thank you so much!!!

Glad you enjoyed it, Janet!
Never listened to Alice In Chains, will have to check them out!Good Video
Thanks for the visit, Tammy!
She did a beautiful version of this song. Would love to see you do a version of aic song rooster. God bless.
Good suggestion!
My god, Layne is so talented and I miss his vocals everyday. Ken, have you thought about doing a video tutorial on Alterbridge, Indoctrination. Such a blast of vocal energy 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Great suggestion!
I respect her for trying.
She did an awesome job, PsychoSlingers!
She sounded good wydm
Trying? Jeez mate, matching layne is pretty bloody hard for even the best singer, she may not be layne but was awesome!
I know what you mean, she did great but Layne is Layne :')
Still, is great to see her keep those notes going for so long, she's great
9:29😂
Great video!😀
Glad you enjoyed!
Hi Ken. Been a fan of yours for a good few years now and been trying a lot of your techniques, making progress - and thanks for your videos. I've got a request, based on the grunge era which I would absolutely love to hear one day - and that's Silverchair - Tomorrow , absolutely killer track and I think from a vocal standpoint, would be a very interesting case study for a similar video - I'm going to annoy you with loads of comments on this one going forward :)
If you haven’t heard Nathan James and his group Inglorious then you need to! Impeccable technique and talent. Songs like “Until I Die” “Making Me Pay” “Bleed for You” are my favs. Would make a great reaction vid.
Thanks for the tip!
This was helpful as I'm trying to learn ways to sing this song with my voice. However, to give you a different perspective, the song was inspired by how they keep veal all locked up in a box their whole life.
Thanks for the insight.
You can definitely hear the vulnerability and brutality in Layne's big belts. It's also a big difference that you can notice when practiced trained singers sing his songs because they are habituated to using safe conservative techniques to hit the same notes but Layne wasn't about that. He did have great technique but he also chose to be brutal for the purpose of his stylistic vision. Kurt is like the epitome of brutality in grunge vocals because he was all savage harshness. There's just so much raw and diverse passionate authenticity in that movement
OMG the girl singing gave me goosebumps and tears to my eyes, so damn good. Does she have a channel or any socials to follow? AmazinG
Hi Ken have a nice week🤘🤘🎵🎵
Hey you, too, Ramiro!
Ken would love to see you sing in the style of Layne Stayley
👍👍👍
I love your videos. I would love for you to make a video on Peter Steele :)
Maybe one day!
Can you do how to sing video for "Would" by Layne Staley, as everyone just pick Man in the box, I think Would also deserves a shot!
Thanks for the suggestion!
Great video Ken! Would love to see one on Beth Hart!
Music is freedom So why would anyone want to sound exactly like their favorite artist?. KTVA is the place to learn distortion the right way. It is cool to sound like Layne but it is safer to follow what sir Ken is teaching in his course, if you want to spend the rest of your life singing great! Rock on! This is a another great post sir Ken. Thanks a lot!
Thanks, Joshua!
LAYNE POWER
DonnieDarko727 💪
As much as I love Layne, I think it's important to point out flaws in someone's vocal technique. No one is perfect, and you're probably saving a lot of people from hurting themselves from trying to sing exactly like he did. I can't sing anywhere close to Layne's caliber, but maybe one day with enough practice :).
Keep up the hard work, Anthony! 😊
@@kentamplin Thanks Ken :)
I'm the singer in a band and we do about 2 hrs worth of Alice In Chains among other bands. I do what I can, but it's not easy that's for sure, but I've always been a fan of his style.
Grunge is the music for the depressed by the depressed
Youre right, I think people judge too quick about things they dont know.
😊
Ken you are amazing teacher abd singer! What about Phil Anselmo vocal?
Good suggesiton!
This is the first time I've ever heard a lady sing this song! Very surprised and very killer version! I rem. when these guys came out! I was 19 at the time in 1991! At the time I didn't really notice the grunge scene until 1992 and how MTV changed from our classic 80's bands to the 90's Seattle scene! For me I felt alice n chains was heavy metal and I thought they could of been the modern day black sabbath of the 90's! What do you think ken on the black sab. Comparison?
Thanks for sharing, Ronnie!
It is my lifelong dream to successfully emulate layne staleys singing. I can sing a little, but i hate my voice
Gabriela crushed that chorus damn!
I like to think that the lyrics (as you said) are even more complex than that. If there's some kind of evil inside of you speaking to you, it's not all you. The evil is challenging and speaking for itself whilst Layne is compartmentalizing and breaking down the consequence. He feeds into the "hear no evil see no evil" He sees things he doesn't want so the evil temps him (drugs) to sew his eyes instead of facing it (and now that you've sewn them shut, shows that he decides to take the easier of the two roads) However on his second temptation "deny your maker" It seems as if the ultimate good side comes out knowing the repercussions and the finality of making such a judgement. Once evil realizes the good, he attempts manipulation at another level 'animals.' Alot of people who have given up hope on humans, still have a chance to be caught up in love for animals as they are a much purer form of friendship unconditional really. However since he's eyes are sewn shut I assume the evil was a bit too apprehensive and lost the overall battle within this song.
Just my interpretation.
Thanks for the thoughts!
@@kentamplin Keep rocking dude!
It was not about him at all. Man in the box was sung from the perspective of a veal calf. Layne was way ahead of his time.
Please do Benjamin From Breaking Ben! His voice is so unique!!
Thanks for the suggestion!
Never listened to him much Ken or never have really listened to him at all I may need to though Gabriella is great she's a awesome singer as well great demonstrations as always Ken love how you walkthrough and explain and demonstrate in singing to this chick sure can sing she's fantastic love your singing demonstration as well Ken telling us but yes Gabriella rocks she's a winner awesome job 👍👍👍👍👍🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Thanks, Cade. I appreciate that!
Your welcome Ken glad to hear it buddy
Ken says "I remember seeing a couple concerts with him, like two of em, and he was pretty drugged out..unfortunately". Yep. I think you could say that about the whole gang of bands in the Seattle grunge sound. I saw Alice in Chains at Lollapalooza 3. Man i just looked at that was 27 year ago. That was the summer after Dirt their biggest selling album was released. That album had some great songs but filled with gritty and very dark sound. I think you kinda have to feel it ( and im not sure you would want to) to really replicate it but you can come close.
Almost all the grunge era singers have overdosed. And there were some really some unique vocal talents among them. its sad.
guess i should correct that. they didnt all overdose some suicided but we all know it drug use was a big factor.
Such a shame, James!
@@kentamplin That being said Ken, one of the few of that genre still around is Mark Lanegan from Screaming Trees. Not as well known as Alice in Chains or Soundgarden but he has a 'very' distinct voice. They did have the song Nearly Lost You that was in the Cameron Crowe film Singles which featured alot of music of that Genre. If you get the urge to review him would be cool.
@@sociald100 practically underground and ur right...me and you are buds😎🤘
You should do one of these or a what makes this singer great on Michael McDonald
Good suggestion!
Can u have a how to sing like Danny Worsnop Sir Ken? Would be nice if its in the Shades of blue album
Thanks for the suggestion!
13:00 Great breakdown of the meaning behind Man in the Box's chorus. You don't often hear people discuss this. The statements in the chorus are all unique refrains dealing with the spiritual battle around life and death, how to live and how to relate to the suffering around us; the chorus is like the back and forth push and pull towards and away from faith or empathy or spiritual peace. That depth is what makes it one of the greatest rock songs of all time because it's more than just an attention grabber; it's a spiritual message from the belly of the beast
What? No lmao
Layne Staley himself admitted the song is about censorship on TV. He said he wrote it while stoned and it wasn't a song with a crazy amount of meaning
Hi, would you do a version of "Nerver gonna say good bye" from Guardia, I have tried to figure out how to sing it correctly, Jamie Rowe has a great rock voice.
Thanks for the suggestion, Oscarín CV!
Hi..ken.
Heavy lost!!
Ken hanslly from uriha heep...rip.
You should talk about him ..or sing..or tribue about the guy.
The song by him-lady in black was a gteat rock masterpiece.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Great choice of having Gabbie do the demonstration. She could make "The Farmer in the Dale" smolderin' hot! Is she still performing with the TranSiberian Christmas Show?!?!?
Unfortunately no one is performing due to The 'Rona.
Good point on the lyrical meaning!!... people ignorant!!... first time I heard it I knew that!!... people are to self righteous..looking to point fingers!!
7:00 When Christy Brinkley SINGS like a BOSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JD M 💪
Hello Ken, I wanted to say, great video! Gabby is amazing. Wow!
I am fairly new to your channel and I don't know if you have touched on his topic or not, but you spoke a bit about drugs when you saw Layne in concert in the video; I wanted to know how much do drugs and smoking affect one's signing voice and lungs?
I've always cringed at seeing singers smoking, because I would think, they'd baby their voice, since that is their instrument and bread and butter. But, I always figured most singers smoked to GET that raspy voice, but how long before the smoking and drugs causes injury to your voice?
Love the bits of background information on the songs and singers, also great to see Gabriella again. Keep them coming Ken!
Thanks, will do!
Looking forward to this!!

First view!
Never clicked so fast!!

Awesome! You still gotta do Scott Weiland and Mike Patton, BTW.
Great suggestion!
Please one vocal lessons for Brendon Urie 🙏🙏
I have a couple of videos on Brendon but I haven't done a How To Sing yet. 😊
Ken is such a cool guy tho gotta admit 😊
👍💜😀
Gabrielas voice gets me. Please let us have more. And Gabby, no pop! Rock please. Although the pop vs rock vid is funny though.
We'll see what we can do.
How to sing like thom yorke next 🙏
Thanks for the suggestion!
Bro i respect her for covering this but layne uses belting to get the b flat to ahve more powerful and agressive sound which is the actual reason why man in the box is almost impossible to cover using the same technique layne use to get the notes but still full respect to her but you coach ken really close to him not spot on but its there one of the closest one ive ever heard
Staley was a student of maestro Kyle in Seattle
Thanks for sharing that info, Mohawk Guy!
Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy I only know that because my old singer was a student of his and frequently saw Layne, Anne and Nancy Wilson and Geoff Tate when they were all coming and going from coaching. Waaaay back in the day
I find this song can sound just as good sung without the distorsion. Great song.
It is, isn't it?
Ok so a thing I noticed is that even if I'm more leaning towards your technique Ken, I find Layne's nasally sounding technique to be much easier on the voice buut what I don't like is that it kinda sounds weak. In other words, for me it's more like I'm lazy and won't use my whole machine- type of distortion. Weird to find out it's unhealthy when it seems so easy and conservative on the chords, if I may say so. Interesting video!
Thanks for watching!
