The Student Government Association hosted the 2015 “The Voice” contest Thursday inside Herod Hall to crown the 2015 talent champion of Northwestern.
Claiming the first place award was the talented Faith Changara.
A number of students participated, displaying a wide variety of talents, ranging from stand-up comedy to bands performing classic songs.
“It was the biggest adrenaline rush I have ever had,” said Nick Perkins, who performed a Led Zeppelin song on his guitar.
The judges would sound their horns whenever they were interested in the performer. Each judge would give a description of what they liked about the performer in order to persuade them to be picked as the performer’s coach.
“It was epic,” said judge Matt Adair. “I will always think I should have won the judge’s trophy. My team was stacked with talent. All the participants were great and the event was so much fun. I can’t wait until next year.”
At the end of the night, the People’s Choice Award was handed to the participant that the audience cheered for the most. The People’s Choice Award was given to Mikayla Zook, who sang “Because of You.”
Members of the audience attended to support their friends and said they were amazed by the performances.
