What about The Voice? I'm thinking about having my daughter audition for that one, at least she's mentioned it to me. Is it the same format as AI?
These shows are meant to gain an artist exposure.
If your daughter is doing local gigs and getting rave reviews but can't catch a record deal than this would be the best format.
The Voice is for professionals. People who do this for a living or have worked at it all their life.
AI is more of an amateur comp but it is a pop deal where the winner is just stylized to death and meant to capture america's attention for a few months.
Signing voice is important but very few great voices truly last. It is about a package thy can sell.
And any artist touring has to be able to pull off a show when the voice is at 50-60%.
Great voices sing once a week at Church.
Selling artists are performers.
I went to high school with a guy whose made it a couple rounds deep on these shows a few times: X-Factor and The Voice.
He's been doing local or area touring for 10 years.
