JRCF29 8,185 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Genuine question: Almost every Gaga live performance that I've been to or seen on TV has had her singing live with a backing track filling in other parts; why not use live back-up singers?

Cavadour 2,311 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 (edited) Maybe by choice. To keep the vocal integrity of the songs. She usually does the backings herself in studio. Sometimes many tracks. Skilled singers able to make the backing parts sounding like her must be complicated to find. Probably rare and expensive. Besides many of her backing vocals are treated, sometimes heavily.

As to why she doesn't use them more often, I havo no idea. Backing track offers less variables out of her control, less chances for audio malfunctions, a few less salaries to pay, are some of the reasons that come to mind Edited June 2 by Taumaturg0 6 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
