Television Talent Search Shows

In this world of searching for good musicians, songwriters, and artists, reality television has become a conduit for the music industry. I’ve worked with many artists who have decided that their career path was to audition for a television talent search show. I’ve also had the opportunity to work with several artists who’ve made it onto these shows.

My advice to anyone preparing their auditions is to find songs that represent the melodic range and the lyric content that would best describe who you are as an Artist. I recommend watching the shows frequently and making sure to look for characteristics that represent you in these shows. Make sure to demonstrate these characteristics in your auditions.

If you make it to a second audition, if allowed, keep the same songs you sang in the first round. These songs need to be your strength. Do not use anything that you don’t know well. If you make it to the rounds before the final cut, make sure you have an attorney look over any paperwork you have been given. When you make it onto the show, my words are “Congratulations!” Make sure you warm up your voice daily, drink lots of water, and get as much rest as possible.
