Our largest crowd of the competition cheered for their favorite as the four finalists performed three times each. The vocalist’s first selection was a song from this decade (2020 to 2022). That was followed by a “freestyle performance” they arranged with original lyrics provided to them a week ago. Each finished with a third song of their choice. When the judges’ scores and audience votes were tallied, Raul Contreras was both the Jessica Strauch State Farm Fan Favorite and the grand prize winner. Contreras, performing for the first time in Rock Star, earned $500 as the champion and another $100 as the final Fan Favorite.
Savanna Sondgeroth finished second in the year’s competition and wins $250. T.J. Martin gets $150 for third. Fourth place finisher Larry Kohr received a $50 Starved Rock Lodge gift card. The evening started with a special surprise performance from our most recent winner (2020) Sherri Lynn aka “Gypsy Queen”, and ended appropriately with the winner, Raul, on stage surrounded by his fans.
