Here is a little experiment for you to do, try humming in a very deep voice with your chin touching your chest, now raise your chin upwards as you are humming, slowly looking towards the sky. What you will notice is, as you raise your head up, the tone of your voice will get lower as the tension is released from your vocal chords.

This is illustrating how the tension of the vocal chords is the key to achieving that deep voice you have always wanted. There are multiple causes for you vocal chords becoming tense, thereby causing you to have a high pitched voice. It really doesn’t have anything to do with how big your vocal chords are. Just by raising your chin from your chest while making a sound, you have demonstrated that the only thing that matters, when trying to get a deeper voice, is the tension of the voice box.

Your vocal chords are actually very similar to a string instrument. Even the smallest chord on a string instrument can be loosened to give it a deeper sound. So therefore, you can clearly see that the best way to deepen your voice is to release some of the tension on your vocal chords by doing various exercises like humming and breathing exercises. Humming in a deep voice in different notes can help you control the deeper tones of your voice and release some tension from your vocal chords.

Some of the exercises you should be doing are mental though, they have to do with controlling your emotions to keep tension from occurring when you are in crowed places. That’s why some singers’ voices crack when they are singing in front of large crowds, it is simply the tension that is being forced upon their voices by the pressure of being in front of all of those people.
