Digicel Rising Stars returns for its much-anticipated fourth season.  Hosted by Knycky Cordner, television’s number 1 talent show empowers viewers to share their voice in deciding who will be Trinidad and Tobago’s next singing superstar.

This new season promises to deliver amazing, undiscovered talent with plenty of surprises along the way.
"The auditions are more compact than the previous three years which makes the competition more intense. There will be one grand audition at Fiesta Plaza, MovieTowne over the 5th and 6th of September," says Sacha Thompson Digicel’s Marketing Director.

The shortened audition period is not the only exciting change that will debut this season.  Award winning musical director and voice coach, Glenda Collens, will join long-time Digicel Rising Stars judges Michael Salickram and Johnny Gonsalves to lend her expertise on the celebrity panel. 

 

 

The trio will determine who goes through from the 2-day audition to the broadcast shows. The public then has the opportunity to decide who moves forward in the contest by text message and telephone voting. The judges Salickram, Gonsalves and Collens will still have their say after every performance. Voting via telephone and text messaging begins immediately after each broadcast performance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Eventually the competition is narrowed down to three finalists who this year will compete for $200,000 in cash prizes, a booking contract, a music video and and the coveted Digicel Rising Stars title. The seven live shows will be held for the first time at the Alchemy Night Club, formally Strand Cinema in front of a studio audience.

 

 

Past winners Eclectik, Kay Alleyne and Erica Samuel have become household names and are all developing careers in entertainment.
