It was a beautiful Sunday night for last weekend's Big Joe Jersey Talent Show performers. The weather was perfect and the ocean breeze felt great!

This week consisted of eight great performances and I hope that every contestant continues to follow their passion for what they love to do. Seeing how each contestant cheered each other on leaves me in awe. The audience had a tough decision to make because not everyone can make it onto semi-finals. Congratulations to Sophie and Echo Piccone, Brianne Nealon and Joselyne Roman!

Lastly, I’d like to say thank you to our sponsors, who we wouldn’t be able to do the talent show without. Portrait Recording Studios, who is giving out a priceless grand prize of a recording package, which includes full audio recording and mixing for a single song, a recorded and edited video for that song, and much more! World Wide Piano of Edison, who is giving away an acoustic Hallet Davis & Co. 45″ studio piano. And BuyDig.com, who gets to spend every Sunday night with the Jersey Prize Team, giving out beach goodies and coupons for their website, which sells almost every electronic imaginable and offers free shipping!

This Sunday, August 14th, is the last set of auditions before semi-finals! The show will begin promptly at 7pm and should last around an hour. Here's to the last week of auditions! We hope to see you at Jenkinson's in Point Pleasant before the summer ends!
