First time contestant and 102.9 CHTM’s own afternoon drive host, Robyn Thomson, won the Thompson’s Got Vocal Talent Show on Sunday.

 

Robyn Thomson claimed first place and five hundred dollars by wowing the judges with her performance of “You and Me” by Pink and City and Colour and “I’m Yours” by Jason Mraz.

 

Here’s Thomson talking about her win.

 

“I was really surprised. I signed up last minute. I don’t perform much. So, it was just kind of a fun thing. I figured if I did well I’d get a prize and then I ended up doing really well. It was fun.”

 

Thomson explains how she got into singing.

 

“I started singing in high school when we had to sign up for arts classes. My school had vocal classes and I thought singing was fun so I did it. I continued doing it for all four years and I did every choir and every vocal class that I possibly could and now I do it for fun.”

 

The rest of the top five contestants include Richard Obierna, Olivia McLeod, Brendan Rhodes, and Andria Stephens.
