Embark on the Journey to Discover the Next Soul Country Music™ Star!

The hunt for the next Soul Country Music™ Star kicks off online on June 4, 2024. This thrilling competition spans four vibrant cities—Los Angeles, Atlanta, Dallas/Fort Worth, and DC/Maryland—providing a unique platform for diverse country music artists to shine.

How to Enter

Starting Tuesday, June 4th, aspiring stars can submit their audition videos via YouTube or Vimeo through the official Soul Country Music™ website. This is your chance to share your talent with an esteemed panel of music industry judges.

The Competition Heats Up

From these submissions, the judges will handpick the TOP 10 contestants from each city. These select few will then compete for public favor on the website’s voting page, where fans will have the power to choose their TOP 6 favorites from each city.

Live Performances and Celebrity Judges

The TOP 6 will advance to thrilling live competitions at pre-rodeo events, part of the Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo tour. Taking place in Los Angeles, Atlanta, Dallas/Fort Worth, and DC/Maryland, these events will feature celebrity judges who will narrow the field to the TOP 2 contestants from each city.

The Grand Finale

The TOP 2 from each city will perform at the Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo. Here, a combination of judges' scores and audience applause will determine the city’s champion. These four winners will then vie for ultimate glory at the Soul Country Music™ Star finale, slated for November 2024 in either Los Angeles or Nashville (final location to be announced).

The Grand Prize

The ultimate Soul Country Music™ Star will win a $10,000 cash prize, a potential music streaming contract, and the prestigious opportunity to join the Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo tour in 2025 as a featured artist. Additional prizes and opportunities await, with further details to be revealed.
