Okay
Will there be a next Season? I would like to audition!
I would like to audition but I live in hominy oklahoma. Let me know when your excepting new auditions for 2019. Thanks.
when will they start taking applications for auditions for the next Real country show? I see that the applications had to be submitted by June 2018 or something like that. Would like to know when they will start taking new applications?
If it gets renewed, my guess would be spring 2019. Again, it’s a guess and I have no other info other than shows that stay on for longer than 1 season tend to cast around the same time annually. Depends on many things.
Someone please please look at Ksenona, a beautiful Russian singer with an angelic voice…she deserves to be discovered. She has many YouTube videos. She could be the daughter of Shania Twain…they look similar!
Is there an age range for what you are looking for?
I’m from Philippines, can I still submit my demo tape?
