Some have a natural knack for singing vocal harmonies and backing vocals, but for those who don't let's today take a closer look at how harmonies actually work, what options we have for creating backing vocals for a song, and how some of these famous singers and groups put together their backing vocals.

The outro music to this video is my track "Clap" which you can hear in full on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0wKKJ... 🎶

And, an extra special thanks goes to Douglas Lind, Vidad Flowers, Ivan Pang, Waylon Fairbanks, Jon Dye, Austin Russell, Christopher Ryan, Toot & Paul Peijzel, the channel’s Patreon saints! 😇
