My best friend James Greer from Allen Central who is a Sophomore is participating in the competition, but unfortunately I have to work so I wont be able to see him and I am pretty upset about it, but whoever goes please cheer for him and show your support! Hes a great singer and deserves it!

This year, Big Sandy Community and Technical College (BSCTC) launched its new music scholarship program for high school students. Big Sandy Idol, sponsored and organized by the Music Department of BSCTC, is a talent and scholarship competition that offers two winners from 14 high schools in Pike, Floyd, Johnson, Magoffin, and Martin Counties, a chance to compete for a demo CD recording, an full-album recording, a $1,200.00 vocal scholarship to attend BSCTC, along with a cash prize and a spot with the Big Sandy Singers who are directed by Laura Ford Hall.

Through the sign-ups and audition process, approximately 10 to 15 students were chosen to compete at the local high school level – in front of the student body at their own high school. Now, all of the winners have been chosen and two winners from each high school will compete at the Mountain Arts Center for the Big Sandy Idol Regional Competition, held Friday and Saturday, March 16 and 17 at 7 PM each evening.

The Friday night show will feature the Runners-Up from each school and the Saturday night show will feature the first place winners.

The students who will be competing in the BSI Regional competition are:

Friday Night
James Greer – Allen Central High; Hillary Keesee – Belfry High; Carmi Baxter – East Ridge High; Ashley Hall – Johnson Central High; Lindsey Carty – Magoffin County High; Tyler Childers – Paintsville High; Trusonda Dotson – Phelps High; Daniel Zienkiewiez – Pike Central High; Kara Hall – Pikeville High; Katie Lemaster – Prestonsburg High; Holly Pack – Prestonsburg High; Britta Hall – Shelby Valley High; Candace Preece – Sheldon Clark High; Savannah Bartley – South Floyd High

Tickets go on sale Friday, Feb. 9 and are $5 each. 50% of sales will go to promote the Music and Drama Community Outreach Program at BSCTC and further scholarship opportunities for vocal music students.

Out of the 14 students competing on Friday night, one will be crowned the “wild card.” The “wild card” will receive a recording contract for a ten song album from BSCTC Productions Studio and then go on to Saturday’s competition to compete for the other prizes.

Isaac Thacker is no way represents the opinions of East Ridge High School. They are that of the participant only and should not reflect the....lol

The boy is hilarious but I don't enjoy his singing. Carmi is a lot better than him.

I know for a fact that Josh Martin backed out of it, so James Greer from AC will be singing tonight.

[rebel mom]

Why did Josh back out? I hate to hear that. I love to hear him sing.

Im not for sure really, I never did talk to him about it. But I know that he has been enjoying himself at the NCAA Tourney games at Rupp these past few days, so that might have had something to do with it.

Does anyone know who won?

[15thRegionCrazy]

No.. I was wondering who won too... there was a lot of people there though... I would say pepole were standing because cars were parked everywhere

[cards_athlete]

Kristina Pescosolido from Johnson Central won 1st place last night.

[Pupaw]

Tyler Childers from Paintsville can really sing, he didn't win, but he is something else. He even writes his own songs. He plays guitar and all that stuff. His band is the Route 3 Band if you ever get the chance to hear them, you should really do it. They performed at Apple Day, and a large crowd turned out for it.
