Voice of Namibia is a competition designed to discover singing talent in the country on a distinguishing level, and which produced startling results in 2018, its first year of running.
In 2018, the competition was driven on multimedia with public votes and online judges.
In 2019, it improved and expanded.
Alinda Lu'Mar is the founder and owner of the competition. “We started off with a live illumination show with 25 finalists on 9 February 2019 and our final show with the top 10 was held on 16 April 2019,” she says.
The first illumination show of the third season will be held on 1 February in Pionierspark, Windhoek. The top 10 will be selected as well as the favourite contestants and guest artists.
There is a new panel of judges, which will feature 2019 winner Nadia Hanssen.
Lu'Mar mentions one of the main challenges they face is the sponsorships needed to help cover costs.
“In order for us to produce a good show, we need money,” she says.
This year's winner will win N$10 000 and free entry into the Namibia championships of the performing arts, set to take place in April. Lu'Mar says a top 10 event before the finale, which will take place on 7 March, is also in the works.For more information contact 081 3335 647.
