Taylor Swift Voice Type (2024)

Voice Type: Light-Lyric Soprano

Range: C3-G5-G5

Taylor Swift is one of the biggest pop stars of the 21st century. From Fearless to Red and the immensely popular 1984, Taylor has seen great success.

Alto

I have seen Taylor called an alto a countless number of times. Alto is a part one sings in a choir, so you can sing it, but you can’t be it. When classifying voices we use the fach system, which alto isn’t a part of (alto is for choral work only), so no one can be an alto.

Mezzo-Soprano

Its easy to see why people call Taylor a mezzo, considering she makes use of her lows quite frequently and barely ventures into the upper 5th octave. Despite using them often, her lows are weak and foggy (For example). She uses them often as it is easier for her to sing lower than higher, due to her voice’s lack of development. A mezzo would sound more comfortable down low.

Soprano

While she doesn’t sing right up to F5s and G5s often, her songs actually sit quite high. Although her technique does everything to hinder her comfort in her belts, she still has some comfort there (22, I Knew You Were Trouble, Out Of The Woods). Taylor’s timbre is youthful and bright, meaning she must be a light-lyric.

Vocal View: I love Taylor’s expressive and catchy pop songs. I just wish she would work on developing her voice.
