| | Singer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A lead singer (in barbershop music simply called a lead) is one who sings the primary vocals of a song, as opposed to a backup singer who sings backup vocal(s) to a song or harmonies to the lead singer. | | | Singers may also be classified according to the style of music they sing, such as soul singers or carnatic vocalists. | | | An exception is in five-part gospel a cappella music, where the lead is the highest of the five voices and sings a descant, never the melody which may be in any of the other four parts. |

| | Flössin: Lead Singer: Pitchfork Review |
| | Occasional clusters of CD skips appear to remind us that there is computer software in the room, but Lead Singer sounds strangely analog and most certainly live, with a strong dose of room ambience and a recording with such heavy bleeding it may as well be mono. | | | Most importantly Lead Singer sounds bashed out for the sheer pleasure of it, and the thrill is contagious. | | | If loud, rough, and noisy music once seemed an outlet for anger, bands like Flössin show how much happiness there can be in unbridled sound. |

| | RollingStone.com: INXS : INXS Choose Lead Singer : News |
| | The show's winner -- and, by definition, INXS' new lead singer -- is Canadian J.D. Fortune, who out-dueled Chicagoan Marty Casey with renditions of the Rolling Stones' "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and INXS' own "What You Need," backed by his bandmates-to-be. | | | The chemistry was immediately apparent as Fortune joined his new bandmates for a post-taping concert that included several of the band's biggest hits, as well as a new track, "Easy, Easy." | | | The band had since tried a series of vocalists, including a tour with British RandB singer Terence Trent D'Arby. |

| | The message in the music is as fundamental and imperative today as it was the day he first strutted onto a wooden stage: "To me the message is the whole thing," he declares. | | | Throughout a decade he's become synonymous with those gravelly vocals and carefully contained rage who has consigned himself to the ongoing fight against racism and suppression whilst flickering between confrontational guises such as The Beatnigs, Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy and his latter incarnate the honeyed soul of Spearhead. | | | Although the symphonic Spearhead strains may lead fans to believe that Franti has mellowed, nothing could be further from the truth. |
