Master Class: Auditioning for TV Singing Competitions with Jai Ramage (The Voice UK)

Learn what the audition process is like for a TV Singing Competition show!

PERFORMERS: Sing a 60 second pop/rock/contemporary style song cut a capella (typical first round audition) and receive feedback/make some adjustments in the moment with Jai. Also, practice for the chat portion of the audition. She may ask you questions about your hobbies, interests, singing background - be ready to be you and have a short conversation. A few performers will have the opportunity to sing to a backing track or while accompanying themselves on guitar or piano as would happen in later rounds of the competition. When you sign up, please specify if you prefer the first round a capella experience or a later round accompanied experience. Plenty of time for Q&A.

OBSERVERS: Learn by watching and participate in the Q&A. Come with questions ready!
