Contestants perform original songs for an esteemed 56-person jury—one representing each state/territory—and for viewers at home.
American Song ContestThe point system uses a system where every territory and state votes equally, regardless of their population. Who will win the competition depends on the combination of jury and public votes.
The first episode introduced viewers and the 11 first contestants.
It was the first. Yam HausFrom the great state Minnesota. They did “Ready To Go,” a poppy, uptempo dance track harkening bands like Maroon 5 and Walk The Moon. Snoop Dogg was impressed, calling it a “hit record.”
Next up, it was a K-pop artist from Oklahoma! AleXa performed a high-energy version of her song “Wonderland.” Donned in a blue wig, her dance moves were just as impressive as her vocals. The performance ended with AleXa falling backwards off the stage to a rapturous response from the studio audience her high school choir classmates back home. Consider us impressed!
