16-year-old Buffalo native Sydney Sterlace is set to appear on NBC's The Voice on Monday evening.
Fans can vote for Sterlace via The Voice Official App or on NBC.com/VoiceVote. Voting is open until 7 a.m. on Tuesday Dec. 3.
Sterlace began competing in local talent shows when she was seven and by the time she turned 10, she won first place in the Erie County Fair talent competition. She has been a regular performer at a local music arts festival organized by Robby Takac of the Goo Goo Dolls.
Since her days competing in local talent shows, the 16-year old sang the national anthem at a Buffalo Sabres game earlier this year and multiple Buffalo Bisons games.
Sterlace's mother has played a major role in her success, including discovering local competitions on social media for her to compete in. She recently won a TikTok challenge promoted by BroadwayEvolved and was blown away when she won. She was flown out to New York on an all-expenses-paid trip for a weeklong Broadway intensive with Betsy Wolfe.
Fans can tune in to watch The Voice at 8 p.m. on NBC to support Sterlace.
