Lyndon State’s AMS Club has nearly $275 to work with following last week’s talent show fundraiser, which included a variety of musical acts.
Half of the money raised will cover annual conference fees, while the other half will be put toward the Vermont Disaster Relief Fund, according to club spokesman and event organizer Stephen Decatur.
The newly-formed musical duo of Jacqueline Laviolette and Kyle Gadapee took first place in the annual competition. The pair performed a cover of Beyoncé’s ‘Listen,’ with Laviolette signing and Gadapee accompanying her on piano.
Both said they were very pleased with the performance overall and look forward to collaborating again in the future.
They also collected a set of prizes totaling $250, all of which was donated by local businesses.
Newcomer Drew Cathcart finished second after performing a song he wrote just the day before.
“I only messed up once or twice,” Cathcart said while laughing when asked to talk about the quick turnaround.
Third place went to repeat performer Alyssa Rovella for her rendition of ‘Clean’ by Taylor Swift.
Local meteorologists Kerrin Jeromin and Steve Glazier emceed the event, while a panel of five judges evaluated the talent.
Other notable acts included a dance set by Sarah Burnett and a rap performance by Steve Neas and Trevor Richmond.
The show featured 11 acts in total.
Many of them can be seen at other Lyndon State music events and at The Stage in Lyndonville.
