Regardless of your vocal range you need to warm up your vocal cords to make sure you don't overstrain them. Start by singing scales slowly for about quarter of an hour. When your voice feels comfortable you can start singing your practice songs.

Pick the right songs

Choose songs that fall into your range so you have the best chance of singing well and finding your voice. Sing along with the recordings when your beginning to help you hit the right notes and are comfortable with the songs.

Give all types of music a chance you may discover you can sing country extremely well even if its not your preferred genre.

Record yourself singing
