Last year’s winner Andrianna Tansey is now performing for us. At least we get some great entertainment while we wait for the votes to be counted. Soon after Andriana starts singing we know why she was last year’s winner. She has an awesome voice. Her stage presences is also great and the crowd is definitely feeling the vibe from the stage. Outstanding job. Oh she’s singing another song. A slow one this time. A classic that is getting a few audience claps. Her voice keeps getting better and better.

While the judges and audience votes are being tallied we will be graced with the performance of our host Melody Dunn. She will be singing 2 original songs written by Melody which are part of a future project she’s working on. The first song is a slow one and she’s showing everyone her singing, song writing and performing ability. Both songs are being premiered here at the Historic Yuma Theater. Melody is performing these songs for the first time ever. For it being the first time to perform these songs she’s confidently belting them and showing everyone how it’s done! Great job Melody!
