Este Método fácil para aprender a cantar es mucho más que un curso de canto, pues también introduce nociones de interpretación y grabación en estudio profesional. Carrie y David Grant han volcado en este libro toda su experiencia como profesores de primeras figuras del pop británico. Huyendo de aburridos tecnicismos, poco atractivos para gran parte del público joven, el enfoque del libro es muy práctico. A través de un texto muy gráfico, salpicado de anécdotas, los autores empiezan explicando cómo funciona la voz y cómo mantener sana la garganta, para introducirse, después, en el aprendizaje del canto, el dominio de la respiración, la afinación, el control de los matices, terminando con una parte más escénica en la que se dan nociones de interpretación y actuación. Los ejercicios del CD de autoaprendizaje han sido adaptados al español y grabados en Barcelona por un equipo de expertos.
