Lamorinda Idol 2015 auditions were held May 14-16 with over 180 young people from Orinda, Moraga and Lafayette auditioning before a panel of three judges, who selected the finalists. Commenting on the auditions, Lamorinda Idol Chairman Steve Harwood said, "I have to pinch myself periodically to remember I'm watching kids as young as 7 years old come in, poised and singing like seasoned pros. Across the board, in all categories, we have, once again, wonderful young people who are great singers."
Thirty-three soloists and 12 groups will compete at the finals on Sunday, Sept. 6 at Orinda Theatre. The community will also be treated to several performances throughout the summer in Orinda and Lafayette from finalists and runners up.
