DO YOU have the X Factor?
TALENT SHOW HEADS TO CITY IN SEARCH OF A NEW SINGING SENSATION!
THE X Factor is coming to Coventry on the hunt for the next big music stars – but Simon Cowell won’t be there.
The open auditions tour will be arriving at The Loft, on Level 3 of West Orchards Shopping Centre, on Thursday, April 27, between 10am and 6pm.
Last year Bratavio, made up of FarGo Village employee Bradley Hunt and Ottavio Columbro, were voted off the reality show during its first live weekend.
The flamboyant duo were eliminated following a sing-off with Saara Aalto, who went on to reach the final stage of the competition.
Dermot O’Leary said: “2016 was a fantastic year for The X Factor and now we’re about to kick start the auditions for 2017! We found some incredible talent and some amazing voices last year and now it could be your turn. “Just one audition could change your life, so if you think you’ve got what it takes then why don’t you apply?” Acts are advised to turn up early to the open auditions and everyone who turns up will be guaranteed an audition. All budding hopefuls need to do is turn up on the date and time specified.
If they impress The X Factor team with their vocals, they will then be in with a chance of auditioning in front of the X Factor judges, when the judges’ auditions take place this summer.
The hit show has uncovered some outstanding talent across the years.
To date, One Direction have sold more than 70 million records worldwide, Olly Murs released four multi-platinum albums with his fifth 24 Hours being recently certified platinum, while Little Mix’s fourth album Glory Days is now the longest reigning No.1 in the UK since the Spice Girls’ debut album Spice.
In 2016, three of the four British lead acts to chart at No.1 in the UK singles chart were discovered by The X Factor – Zayn, James Arthur and Little Mix.
Last year’s winner Matt Terry is currently working on his debut album.
