The search is over! The winners of The Voice of Frankston and Mornington Peninsula 2017 have been crowned after a talent-packed grand final on Sunday, October 22, at Southern Peninsula Art Centre, Rosebud.
Frankston’s Travis Cole won the Adult category, with 15-year-old Ella Wilson, from Rosebud, taking out the Teen category and 12-year-old Lachlan Clue, from Red Hill, winning the Junior category.
“It was such a fun competition,” Travis told Frankly Frankston. “The contestants backstage were really supportive of each other - we had a blast! We also received lots of good feedback from the judges.”
Ella agreed. “It was such an amazing experience. The whole atmosphere was extremely positive and The Music Industry did a great job helping it run as smoothly as possible. It was so great to watch everyone perform and to see so much local talent. I’m extremely grateful that I got the opportunity to be a part of it and I can’t wait for all the exciting things that are coming up for me because of it.”
Cheryl from The Voice of Frankston and Mornington Peninsula described the grand final as “amazing” and praised the “incredible” talent of the finalists. “I was so proud of everyone who had the courage to stand up in front of 300 people and sing – and they sung like they’d been doing it their whole lives.”
