What does it take to sing the national anthem at a Utah Jazz game? Nearly 80 musicians tried to find out, as they auditioned for the honor at the Delta Center.
Nearly 80 musicians auditioned at the Delta Center for a chance to sing or play ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ at an upcoming home game.
“Just remember, we’re not just looking for people who can sing,” Payden Adams, one of the judges and the Jazz’s vice president of entertainment, production and game presentation, told those auditioning. “We’re looking for individuals who can connect with the lyrics and really have a knack for drawing in 18,000 people.”
“It’s kind of intimidating. So definitely props to all these people that come out and put themselves out there,” LaHue said. “We just take notes, and look for powerful confident voices that we feel like we’ll fill the arena.” The Jazz will host 40 regular-season games at the Delta Center, plus one of the team’s four preseason games. The team may get a 41st regular-season home game, depending on how they fare in the NBA’s new Contestant #21, Lindsay Romney, performs for the judges during the Utah Jazz national anthem tryouts at the Delta Center, on Tuesday, Aug. 29, 2023.
