Ohio Talent Seekers' Season III First Live Show and Elimination Results

We started our first live show for season III with our vocal contestants.  The show mimiced the blind auditions that the TV Show "The Voice" produces.  Ten vocalist were selected by the judges to continue on in the competition.  The judges also offered to mentor the contestants they chose throughout the competition or the duration of the contestants time in the competition, whichever comes first.  We stil wanted to offer a wildcard callback.  The judges deliberated over who would be the wildcard choice. There was a tie between to contestants.  We offered both contestants the opportunity as a wildcard callback.  They accepted.  We now have 12 returning vocalist contestants returning to the competition which takes place October 14, 2017.  We congratulate the 10 contestants who made it through to the next round and the 2 wildcard choices.  They include:
