Vocal Range and Profile: Brendon Urie (Panic! At The Disco)


Vocal Range: D2 - C5 - C6 [C7]
Vocal Type: Lyric Tenor (4 octaves)
Vocal Rating: A

Positives: 
Wide vocal range. Clean cut voice that pierces through heavy instrumentation. The lower register is solid and dark and is accessed without lowering the larynx, while his middle voice gains a bright quality. A great, incredibly bright mixed voice allows for an extensive and resonant belting range (See This is Gospel). His voice can soar into the sixth octave often with no strain.  Easy, appealing rolling vibrato.

Negatives:
The voice sounds limited rock stylings. The demanding nature of his songs and smoking can sometimes cause his voice to sound tired. The falsetto above G5 is hit or miss, with some notes having resonance and others sounding pinched and tired.

D2 - C7
