Thank you for joining us for the 2024 Teen Vocalist competition. Tonight, eight teenage singers from Star Valley will perform and compete on stage with the hopes of earning both the audience and judge’s vote. The winner will receive a $1,000 prize. All eight contestants, along with our three judges, are introduced below.
Teen Vocalist includes two rounds of competition. In the first round, all eight contestants will perform. Afterwards, four contestants will be selected to advance to the second round and perform again. The winner will then be selected from those four contestants.
Second round contestants and the final winner will be selected based off the votes of both the judges and the audience. Each of the three judges will account for 25% of the vote, while the auditorium audience will combine for the remaining 25%. Voting for audience members will be done via text message. Voting instructions will be given during the show. Note that only those physically in attendance at the show will be allowed to vote. Those watching the video broadcast on SVI Media will not be able to vote. Voting is sponsored by Rocky Mountain Yeti-Afton.
It is free to watch SVI’s video broadcast of Teen Vocalist worldwide. The broadcast can be found at SVInews.com or on The Vocalist and Star Valley Independent Facebook pages. The broadcast is provided free of charge, thanks to the sponsorship of First Bank of Wyoming.
Once again, thank you for joining us and enjoy the show!
Meet your 2024 Teen Vocalist Contestants
I’m a Junior at Star Valley High school and I absolutely love to perform! I love to dance (ballroom and the musical), sing (Treble Tones), and participate in other activities (Student Council). I also love the Spring, partially because of Teen Vocalist. It’s been a tradition that me and my brother have had, and he’s finally convinced me to try out so, here I am doing that very thing!

Kayleen Anderson began performing at the young age of three. She has directed and performed in numerous ensembles, choirs, and cover bands as well as performing solo her whole life. She loves to sing close harmonies but also loves to step into the solo spotlight every now and then.
When performing, Kayleen’s principal goal is making a connection with the audience. Watching them feel the emotion she’s trying to convey is both thrilling and humbling.
