Lyrical Voices Join In Perfect Melody With A Powerful Message

This 2022 PbS Kids Got Talent Contest Finalist Spotlight features two talented artists from Copper Lake/Lincoln Hills School, Wisconsin Division of Juvenile Corrections. Paired up for a duo original song titled “In the Night,” these young singers backed by the sound of a soulful, tender piano arrangement wowed the selection committee with their performance.n“Your underlying message about self-love and self-worth is abundantly needed and appreciated. The musicality is top-notch!” raved one member of the committee tasked with scoring contest submissions. “The music flowed effortlessly,” gushed another.nEqually as compelling was a solo song titled “Need None,” an upbeat acoustic original that likewise spoke of self-worth and the importance of knowing one’s value. With lyrics like, “Don’t think you can tell me who I really want to be,” the artist reminds us to listen to our inner voice and let our truest and authentic intentions guide the path forward to our best self.nWe thank these talented artists for sharing their voices and words.nListen to “In the Night” and “Need None.”nThe annual PbS Kids Got Talent Contest invites all young people in PbS facilities and programs across the country to submit their talents for a chance to show off their skills.
