Rhine Hall is thrilled to announce that it and Rhum Academy of Music are officially bringing back the Rising Stars vocal competition. Following an incredible inaugural year, Kokomo’s premier singing competition is returning to find the next big voice.
For those who think they have what it takes, Rising Stars is now accepting video auditions for the second annual competition! This year, the stakes have been raised with bigger prizes. First place will take home $1,000, while second place earns $500, and third place wins $250.
There will be three qualifying rounds to determine who performs at the final competition on June 26. The elimination rounds take place May 15, May 29, and June 12. The finalists from these rounds will have the opportunity to perform at the Haynes Apperson Festival prior to the finale. Each round of competition will take place at Rhine Hall, 507 N. Union St.
To audition for the Rising Stars vocal competition, entrants should send a video of their singing performance, no more than three minutes in length to rhinehallrisingstars@gmail.com by April 20. The video should be a voice-only performance of a cover or original tune. The performance may be a cappella or with accompaniment. All ages are welcome to compete.
