The Talent Show was an event where students got to showcase their talent. After all the acts, the audience and the judges chose the winners who then received prizes. Genesis won the “people’s vote”; Emily and Jaren won the judges’ vote.
Act Interviews
Owen stated that he wanted to participate in a talent show because of his love for playing guitar and singing with a band. It's not the thought of winning an award that made him do it - he just truly enjoys making music.
He chose the song "Who Did You Think I Was" for a few reasons. One, because it's written by his favorite artist, John Mayer. Two, he loves the blues and this song is sort of a blues-rock fusion (if you had to put it into a genre). And three, it's a song that's fun to play for all members of the band with frequent drum fills, a melodic bass line, and a rippin' lead guitar part.
Genesis stated, “I like performing so I try to perform any chance she gets even if it's at school.” Her band chose the song “All I Wanted Was You” by Paramore. No one at the school really ever taps into rock as much as other genres, so she wanted to do something different. Growing up her mom sang to her and her sister, so that's where it started. Once she got older she started singing in church, so she's loved music ever since.
