  2. I grew up singing a'capella in church & later in school, so harmonies come natural. Quite often I add ones not present when listening to music. When my very musical family sings together we mix it up, so I enjoy taking the lead vocal as well. Also, I love to collaborate improvisationally to take the tune to a fresh place!

  12. My name is L.A. Wolfe and I am a pop/dance artist out of San Francisco, CA. I have been called “the Lady Gaga of San Francisco”. Recently I recorded with Haunted by Heros (a rock band) who will be performing live on NBC at 8 PM this Thursday (September 6, 2012). Most of my gigs are at the hottest nightclubs in San Francisco, including The Cellar. I recently released my first music video titled, “Tangled”. I am currently working on new singles for the coming year. I would like to be a part of Duets because I live and breath music. Because I am an independent artist that writes all her own songs and have progressed continuously over the years. Because I have a dream and will never fail to shoot as high as I can in the Music Business. I am talented and I have potential…all I want is to be given more of an opportunity to share that.

  16. Hello! My name is Melanie Tate and I have been singing for almost 15 years now. Sugarland has been my favorite band since I heard Jennifer Nettles perform "Something More".I have been blessed with the opportunity to see them 3 times in concert and they were all amazing! I have also been a fan of Kelly Clarkson and have followed her career since she appeared on American Idol's first season. I have some musical background. My dad played guitar and my mom played piano when I was just a little girl. I joined the band when I was 10 years old and played the trumpet until I 14. I learned how to read music and then decided to persue chorus in high school my sophmore – senior years and competed in some competitions. My teacher actually had a small recording studio, so I got to experience a little bit of that end of the music industry. I have the ability to perform onstage, as I was also in drama classes. I sing as much as possible on a daily basis. I love to sing and when given the opportunity, I will perform in front of small or large audiences. I would love to be able to perform on Duets and be given the chance to show my talent. I work hard and diligently to try to make my dreams into a reality. I want to be able to give back something to people, to entertain them and put a smile on their face. This is something I truly love to do. I admire these entertainers and what they give to their fans. I know it is a sacrfice, but it is all i've wanted to do for years and I am always ready for any challenge. I would be most grateful if you would give me the opportunity to appear on Duets. Thank you!

  17. I moved to New York to pursue my dreams many years ago and somehow got lost in the nightmare of simply surviving. This particular show takes the edge off being on stage alone and gives you the opportunity to perform with some of the best of the best–it's unique, but it is not easy. I watched those in the bottom fight to stay in the contest, so you have to really want it and be willing to put everything on the line. I really want the chance, to face the challenge and battle it out for the opportunity to turn a dream into a reality.

  46. I should be a part of this show because I am a young very talened contestant with the passion to be the best at anything i am a part of. I also admire the celebrities chosen to sing with, all of them are truly talented and deserve to be where they are, if and when i am discovered.

I have participated in talent shows throughout chicago and performed in live showcases such as Coast2Coast mixtapes industry mixer Chicago edition. I have also been involved with church choirs,and i was a vocal major throughout high school. I am musically inclined when it comes to writing my own original music and i have a great ear for music.

I feel that given the right opportunity i can be a success not only in the eyes of my friends and family but also in the eyes of the world because I'm destined to work hard and dedicate my life to the gift that God has blessed me with.

    Very Respectfully,
    Ms. Miranda Hobson

  49. I performed in bands in the late 70's always loved to sing. I've been stuck on a county job for about 14 years now, sometimes I perform for the job. well it might be too late because I'm 58 years old now. I sing jazz, rb, and I love funk, I love all kinds of music. I have a collection of karaoke tracks. I really love music

  50. Im 21yrs old and I've been singing since I was 5. Its always been my dream to become a singer. I hope getting on this show will help me start my life long career.

  51. I should be a part of Duets because I have tried all the other show and havent made it anywhere yet. Its not cause I am bad but because I just "wasn't what they were looking for" I know i can sing well I just need to be given an opertunity to be heard. This is the perect show for me because one of my favorite things about music is harmony. I don't even have to win! If i could just sing one duet with Kelly Clarkson It would make my life and i could deal with signin in small town bars and taverns the rest of my life. As long as i can sing my life will be happy.

  52. I should be on Duets because my cooperative personality and voice can work with ANYONE. I have a love for singing and for people that is in everything I do. Just listen to how we could sing together and you will kow that I am the partner for you.

  53. Think Susan Boyle, an older, unassuming looking white woman who walks out on the stage and blows everyone away with her voice and presence. There you have me, Kadari, 60 years old but looking 40, slim and fit, and with a voice that can lift the roof. Yet I feel I have more inside, more to give, and I want to give it in a big way.

    I've sung for a long time, in a duet with my life partner Jescie. We made 5 self produced albums that did well in their small market.
    With one on one coaching and the musical resources of a show like Duets, the really big voice inside me will fly.

    Some people who hear me say they feel like they can fly. I want to appear on Duets to spread that joy to everyone. Thanks.

  54. I have the passion to sing!! I am heart felt about music, my voice an talent is God sent!!! I love to sing!! Thats a goal, an big dream I wish to accomplish one day!!! I know I would best for this show!!

  55. I'm Brittany Jordan. I love this new show, and like many I desire an opportunity such as this. I think this can give me myself,and others, such an opportunity to fulfill our dreams as music lovers. Thanks.
