Songbirds Foundation is hosting our annual kids talent show on Wednesday, December 4th from 7:00–9:00 pm EST at Songbirds on Main Street. The talent show is open to all kids ages 12 to 18 years old across the greater Chattanooga area. All genres of music are welcome!
To enter, students must submit a video of themselves or their band playing a song up to three minutes long to contests@songbirdsfoundation.org. Entries must be received no later than 5:00 pm EST, Friday November 1st.
The Songbirds Talent Show will once again be hosted by local musician and season four contestant on The Voice, Amber Carrington. The winning act will be awarded the chance to perform as an opening act for a musical artist at Songbirds, along with $250, and a free, four-hour recording session in a pro studio. The second place winner will get to shoot a professional music video and receive $100. The third place winner will receive $50.
“Part of our mission here at Songbirds is to provide concrete resources to emerging talent, and our Songbirds Talent Show is just one way we are doing that,” said Reed Caldwell, Songbirds Executive Director. “We can’t wait to see the diverse range of music and talent these kids will bring to our stage!”
Video submissions will be judged on talent, song choice, stage presence, and overall appearance. Twelve winners will be notified by email on Monday November 4th by 5:00 pm EST that they will be moving on to compete in the ultimate battle of the bands at the Songbirds Youth Talent Show. Contestants who move on to the Talent Show will be judged by a panel of musicians and other music industry professionals.
Tickets to see this show on December 4th are on sale for $10. Students who compete in the December 4th event get two free guest passes.
