Amador Idol Coming Soon
Amador County vocalists, between
the ages of 16 and 28, will have a chance to compete at this year’s county fair
to be crowned the Amador Idol, with the winner moving on to the California
State Fair competition. Modeled after
the popular TV show American Idol, Amador Idol promises to be very entertaining with the audience helping
the judges to choose the ultimate winner. Idol contestants will be competing for a chance to advance to the State
competition at Cal Expo on September 1, and the opportunity to win an
undisclosed cash prize, a makeover, and roundtrip airfare to the national
talent competition of their choice.
Amador Idol hopefuls will be asked to sing two
songs of their choice. Idol
contestants will compete on Sunday, July 29, at 4:00 pm, with the top three
finalists, chosen by the judges, advancing to the finals at the end of the
show. The finalists will then
sing either of their two qualifying songs again, or a third song of their
choice. The winner will be selected by
the judges and audience vote and will be awarded Amador County Fair ribbons. Three
judges with music industry background will be on stage to offer advice and
select the three finalists. Fairgoers will then be asked to vote for their
favorite contestant in provided ballot boxes.
