Singer

A singer uses their own voice as their instrument. Other musicians play a guitar or a piano, but a singer's instrument is inside them, so they take care of it by humming gently and sipping water. They practice the words and the tune of a song, then sing it into a microphone with a pianist, a band, or a choir. For example, they might spend the morning repeating a happy song until every word and note feels just right.

Because a singer sings words as well as music, people can sing along and understand the feeling right away. A song can cheer up someone who feels sad, get a whole party dancing, or help a class remember the days of the week. When many people sing the same song together, they feel like one big team.
