RoRo Yone’s journey
- The invite
It all began when he received an invitation from Audacy (previously known as Radio.com) to compete in the Opening Act competition, a platform where artists can show their talents and win by votes.
Previous winners of the Opening Act have opened for Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, and Lizzo. And this year, the goal is to secure a spot in the slot for the We Can Survive concert, an event dedicated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. He is currently fourth in the quarterfinals.
