Some good points there. I did a bit of drama training many moons ago, and we were taught to concentrate bringing sounds from the centre ie, the belly. This can be done as mentioned already with breathing excercises, also do vocal warm ups prior to performance. Don't put to much into vocal warm ups prior to gig. Save something for the main performance. Gargleing with salt water on a daily basis is recommended for all vocalists.
Here is a good vocal warm up/tongue twister you could try.

Theophilus Thistle the succesful thistle sifter, when sifting a sieve full of unsifted thistles thrust three thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb.
