We are in hot pursuit of outstanding vocal talent on the Redwood Coast. If you have always dreamed of singing on stage now is your chance - tryout for Mendonoma Idol. Applicants are welcome in three categories: Junior Idol - 7-12 years, Teen Idol - 13-19 years, & Adult Idol 20 years and up. Tryouts will be held at Gualala Arts Center on Sunday July 29, from 12:00 - 6: 00 p.m. It's easy to try out - come prepared with a 2-3 minute song that best demonstrates your singing ability and sing it a cappella for our panel of judges. The tryouts will be closed so you need not get too nervous as you will only be performing in front of our 5 judges. Twelve finalists in three divisions will be selected by our panel of judges at the tryouts. The contestants that did not make it as finalists will have the option of being part of the Mendonoma Idol Chorus that will perform at the event.
