Rythms on the River finals last night!

Awesome Rythms on the River finals last night! Guest judge, Darla Givens from Channel 10 along with judge-regulars, Julie and Mitch, asked for 6 of the performers to sing a second song to help them make a final selection. The top 4 singers were; Arianna Roberts, Sara St. Pierre, Jaime Kirk and Lindsey Cook. Lindsey Cook was selected as the winner of the 2010 Rythms competition as well as the Gigatone recording contract and an invitation to perform at Sacramento Magazine's 'Best Of' event in December. The Rythms on the River competition was designed to showcase the talent we have in the Sacramento area and the 2010 auditions proved that our talent is second to none. (Hear that LA?) Look for this event to return in April 2011!

Last night's Week 7 of the Rythms on the River was a great ending to the 'raw' auditions for the 2010 contest.
Rythm's MC, Stephen Darmstadler, did a great job of fitting in all the audition performances. We had
a record number of registered Rythms participants, (14).

Here is video clip of last night's winner, Sara St. Pierre. The runner up, Marissa Nicole Tingus sang Broken
Wing, by Martina McBride featuring a killer last note. 3rd place was a tie; Torey Crable, singing Brooks and Dunn,
and Danielle Rose, who sang a really good original composition.

After taking a break next Wednesday, every Wednesday in August will be part of the Rythms's August Finals month.

Y'all need to see the great talent we have, right here in Sacramento!

Micky Dolenz, yes the Monkees drummer, will be part of our Monday, August 2nd
'Patio Jam' - Wine, Food and music event. This will be a 'once in a lifetime' chance
to mix with Micky in an intimate, evening that will include Micky 'jamming' with
the Track Shack studios musicians and rumors that at least one other music legend
will drop by. Phone is off the hook with people asking about the wineries that
will be participating and the food that will be presented.

The wineries include;

Michael David
Frank Family
Pacific Wine and Spirits
Henry Wine Group w/Renwood

The passed appetizers will be served throughout the event...
It’s going to be a blast.

The Rythms on the River week 6 winner, Lucas Lee, performed
a Don Henley classic, 'Heart of the Matter'. In contrast, runner-up
Tia Ferrera performed Rhianna's 'Umbrella'. Helen Austin, a Gigatone
Artist from Vancouver, Canada was recording at the Track Shack
and was kind enough to perform a few of her songs as well.

Much thanks to guest judges; Bethany Crouch from Channel 40
and Jackie Tranchida from Channel 31's weekend show for helping
us choose the Week 6 finalists.

Week 7 is shaping up to be our biggest week yet with a wide-range
of auditioners and performances from 2 past week winners. See you then!
