SARASOTA, FL: Music Compound is excited to announce the Second Annual MC Got Talent Competition. Last year, this competition was a great opportunity for local musicians to showcase their talents, meet new people, and perform in the community. Last year’s winner Trey Wanvig attributes the MC Got Talent Competition with jump starting his Music Career. “Since last year's Got Talent competition, I have worked with many musicians and mentors at Music Compound to help improve my abilities and hone my craft. I have recorded my first album in the last few months, and the whole project started with the studio time that I won with the competition. Along with the studio time, I was also able to design my website, treywanvigband.com, and my logo. Overall, the Got Talent competition is an amazing experience and I recommend that anyone who is interested should go ahead and just audition and see how it goes. I can’t thank Jenny and Music Compound enough for the amazing experience and everything that has been brought about from the competition.” Trey has also gained a lot of confidence and experience over the last year, even performing in Memphis TN, after competing in the 2018 International Blues Competition. This year, participants will have the opportunity to win over $10,000 in prizes. The first place winner will receive $500 cash, a three month membership at Music Compound, access to recording software and more.
