| Eating Before a Performance by Brett Manning |
Q: Should I eat before I sing or perform?
A: If you are hungry, eat. Don't stuff yourself with a 7-course meal. Just eat until you are satisfied.
Always eat at least an hour before your performance to avoid what singers call a "gunky" throat.
You will have the strongest temptation to clear your throat (which can be harmful) immediately after
eating, but waiting an hour is usually enough time for your meal to settle.
