belts out
Delivers with volume
To belt out a song is to sing it loudly and forcefully, with full-throated power: She belted out the national anthem.
The phrase suggests energetic, uninhibited performance rather than technical refinement.
Belt out can extend to any vocalization delivered at high volume: The drill sergeant belted out commands.
