Congratulations to alumnus Annie Kennedy

Annie Kennedy advances to Round 2 of the Capitol Records "The Road to Nashville"

North High alumnus (and former Fine Arts student) Annie Kennedy of Woodridge, IL has advanced to the second round of the Capitol Records "The Road to Nashville" competition. The online singing contest is sponsored by Bix, a division of Yahoo. The first round of competition ended in June with over 1300 entries from across the United States. Ms. Kennedy is one of 50 semi-finalists advancing to the second round.

The top 10 finalists will be flown to Nashville for the final round of competition, which will consist of live auditions in front of an expert panel of judges, who will determine the grand prize winner. The winner will receive $50,000 and a three song demo deal through Capitol Records.

The second round of voting is taking place now through August 7, 2007. If you would like to see and hear Ms. Kennedy, and consider casting a vote for her, you may click here.
