With a primary purpose to elevate the importance and relevance of the feminine touch to music in Ghana and an initiative to develop interest and passion among young Ghanaian ladies in gospel music, The IREVA Songstress Search (ISS) was launched in partnership with Hitz FM, Myjoyonline.com, Footprint TV and Eurostar Global Limousine at Tomrek Hotel inside East Legon.
The Music Reality Show with motto ‘Inspired by Music’, is set to highlight the economic and cultural values of investing in female talents. The Show will start with a highly experienced jury shortlisting applicants to Top 20 finalists who will then go on to battle it out for the ultimate prize.
After which the first, second and third place contestants will be awarded prizes such as Album/Songs Recording Contracts, Cash, Publicity, Promotions and other giveaways.
The ISS music reality show, unlike other reality shows where judges only critique the contestants’ performances will provide Technical Advisor to the jury who will see to mentor the finalists by aiding them with song selection and styling and at the same time participate in judging the contestants in the other categories.
Apart from Judging based on a contestant’s performance, the public would be allowed to cast their votes to their favorite contestant by tweeting her name to a hashtag that would be revealed to the public before voting commence immediately after the Top 20 have been selected for the grand finale.
The votes would be made up of 40% public votes and 60% would be from the jury with the total votes to determine the winner posted online for public viewing. Applicants are thereby entreated to pick up registration forms at the Front Desk of Joy FM for GHc30 or through the official page of the search.
