I guess you could try drone accompaniments, like pipes etc....or a guitarist who lays a kind of rippling backing under the singing because they are not so time-dependent.....

(I also know a guy with a terrific voice, who has the most terrible timing and he accompanies himself. It's knackering just to listen to him, but the tone of his voice is a real delight.)

Learning guitar and backing yourself will not necessarily solve the problem, you might turn up with two conflicting rhythms.

What about taking a few drumming lessons to see if you can understand more about tempos. They don't come naturally to everyone.


But practise and enjoy and sing unaccompanied because that gives you the greatest of all freedoms and pleasure.


The best advice anyone can give you is to LISTEN. Listen to other singers until your ears bleed.

And (:-}) in answer to the post from the poor unfortunate guy who's over-endowed in the trouser department.....You have our sympathy. Life must be pure hell.

Good luck!
