Heartland Idol Results: Three More Finalists Advance!

River Radio’s Heartland Idol, presented by Campus Auto & Tire, had another incredible night at the Pulaski County Fair, and three more talented singers are headed to the finals!

Congratulations to our Judges’ Picks, Emma Linton Zinn and Marissa Goddard, who earned their place in the Heartland Idol Finals at Scout Hall this September.

Congratulations also to our Fan Vote Winner, Kyle Gardner, who received the most audience votes and is officially moving on to the finals!

The competition isn’t over yet! Join us for our next preliminary event at the Union County Fair on August 26th, where another group of local performers will compete for three more spots in the Heartland Idol Finals. Two finalists will be selected by our judges, and one will advance through the audience fan vote.
