  • Song of your choice

• • • Pick a song that you feel shows off your voice best and that you are comfortable singing and record yourself singing it.  You only need to sing about 1 minute of a song, which is usually one verse followed by the chorus.  This can either be a cappella or accompanied (there are TONS of karaoke tracks on youtube).  We just want to hear your voice!
