Within the field of speech-language pathology the classically-trained singing voice has been studied extensively. However much of the research has been done in the laboratory setting and little of it has examined voice use in other genres of singing. This dissertation specifically addresses voice use in band singers within the authentic context of live performance. Through the use of phenomenological and ethnographic methodologies this qualitative investigation of voice use by band vocalists reports findings based on interviews with nine vocalists and one sound engineer in order to gain insight through their lived experiences. Important findings emerged from analysis of the data. The strongest theme encompassing all others was the finding that the primary focus in live performance is on the dynamic social action through collaboration with the audience and with the sound production crew rather than on any particular component such as voice production. Contributory conditions prior to and during the performance were identified. For example, it was shown that many band vocalists rely on experience rather than training, although those with training had more explicit awareness of voice use and care. The necessity of considering praxis relative to the performer's intuitive or explicit knowledge was demonstrated. That is, even when the vocalists had knowledge about voice use and care, they tended to disregard that knowledge due to the dynamic social action within the performance itself. The implications of these findings are significant for the field of speech-language pathology. First, this study demonstrates that the primary goal of social action supersedes other issues in the live performance. In practice, it is counterproductive for speech-language pathologists to try to eliminate target behaviors that are considered to be vocally damaging or to institute beneficial strategies within the performance context. Rather, an aim should be to prepare the voice for misuse through strengthening exercises and training to increase explicit awareness prior to the performance. Further, it is imperative that clinicians treating voice disorders in this population educate themselves regarding sound production equipment such as monitoring systems that have a significant impact on voice misuse.
