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 T.V. 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 – the first being their choice, the second should include at lease one word in the title from the Fair’s theme “Bumper Cars, Rodeo Stars, and Ewe (You)”. Idol contestants will compete on Sunday, July 29, at 4 pm, with the top three finalists, chosen by the judges, advancing to the finals at the end of the show. Three judges with music industry background will be on stage to offer advice and select the three finalists.
