Allie Torto hosts Virtual Voices Live
(WIVT/WBGH) – Allie Torto is helping other singers make a name for themselves in the community as she hosts a karaoke-style singing event. Torto is presenting Virtual Voices Live on Saturday at New Leaf Cider Co. in Port Crane. Torto hosts Virtual Voices, an annual online singing competition, where participants have the opportunity to duet with her on Facebook. Whoever receives the most likes wins not only the competition but also the chance to record their duet professionally with Torto. Previous winners Jaime Pittsley, Ryan Wilson, and Gabriella Bernadini will open the show. Contestants from the past three years of the competition will then be invited to perform. Torto says helping other musicians succeed is therapeutic because it reminds her of her own humble beginnings. She says she wants to be able to support people who are in situations like she was by giving them access to performing. 'I had a really hard time finding that exposure for myself when I first started singing. I didn't really have a planted-out path forward, and I didn't have a lot of people who were singers directly doing a lot of the stuff that I'm doing now and all of the things that I've learned. I kind of had to figure it out mostly for myself,' said Torto. Virtual Voices Live begins at 5:30. It is kid-friendly and open to all who wish to attend. Admission is free. To keep up with Torto on her musical journey, follow her on Facebook at Allie Torto Music.
