24M. finally starting a band with some friends. ive always been told i have a good voice, but id like to actually learn proper technique and make my voice better.

my budget is tight right now, but paying for in person lessons is not out of the question, id just like to know what i should start learning now, and what my options should be as i move forward with this.

my main inspirations are the bands Beloved, Glory of This, This Armistice.

my voice currently sounds like a mixture of Across Five Aprils 1st lead singer and the clean vocalist from Anavie.

dont mind my sound, just want be more diverse and get better.

some friends and i(24M) have decided to start a band. we’ll all be starting from scratch basically with some knowledge on singing and instruments, but mostly just years of researching and day dreaming, and some minor practice of the years. this time we want to seriously pursue it, even if it ends up being just sessions and recordings for ourselves.

id love to find some lessons, i have a small budget, but would like to maybe start with free lessons online first, then online lessons and then finally maybe a few lessons in person.

im already starting with a slightly above average sounding voice ive been told. but id love to practice and improve. also i have no idea if how im singing is damaging to my vocal chords or not. they dont hurt, but better safe than sorry. id also like to achieve higher and lower notes while still maintaining a unique voice and stuff. screaming i would be learning from scratch with basically 0 knowledge on the topic.

some of my inspirations are Beloved, Anavie, Across Five Aprils, Poison the Well.

any advice would be greatly appreciated
