How Bjork almost lost her voice

Björk Unravelled

01-12-2022 • 26 Min.

Bjork's shrieks, rasps, and growls… are what make her voice her own. But they also have consequences on her long-term vocal health.

Here I’ll talk about the advantages and consequences of Bjork’s unique singing style. A listener and fellow Bjork fan named Simon Mejia helped me with this episode, and we’ll each talk about how Bjork’s voice has evolved, why it’s changed, and how we as fans can embrace those changes.
