Our contestants take over at Takeover Radio 106.9

As you'll know if you've been following our web site, Twitter or blogs, Junior Star Singer is all about the performance!

Our show on Takeover Radio 106.9 featured eight contestants, each eager to take their turn and have their voices heard.Our contestants were Petra Nordal, Gracie Bosworth, Jodie Yates, Sarina Bland, Morgan Townsend, Shivani Kumar, Oishee Ghosh and Maryam Panchbhaya.




At the early part of the show each contestant was asked to wait in the 'Take Over Radio' waiting area as they were brought into the radio station to have their own pictures taken against the Take Over Radio famous mural painting.  

 

The performances featured a combination of covers and original tracks that some of the girls had written themselves during songwriting sessions at school or for their own personal projects.  They totally wowed the listeners with their creative style bringing in topics such as 'bullying' and even an imaginative 'robbery'.  Their genre tastes varied from pop rock to musical theatre and Amanda congratulated them all on their blend of different styles. 

You can listen to the complete show here, including performances from each of the girls.

After singing their track each contestant spoke about how music had become an important part of their life and Amanda posed an important question 'What would it mean for you if you won Junior Star Singer Songwriter?'   The contestants spoke about their dreams and aspirations of how recording a song would build their confidence and help to further their future careers in music.  A wonderful path for all of them.....
