Watch: Amy Gardiner sings MacColl penned Roberta Flack hit in advance of The Audition finale

The talented teen last year recorded her first original track ‘Leave You Behind’ just months after Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon gave the 15 year old their votes of confidence in Cardiff.

She’d been competing for a place in the finals of the popular ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ television programme. Now she is in the running - with nine other acts - for a top prize of 5,000 euros in the Highland Radio and Full Tilt studios’ The Audition competition.

“After making it through the semi finals we have some of the best talent in the North West on offer with the 10 final acts battling it out for that 5,000 euros prize, that includes 3k euros cash and 2,000 euros worth of audio visual from us here at Full Tilt Studios.

“So far the competition has gained a great reputation for having some amazing talent and the final will be the biggest and best night so far!” said a spokesperson.

In order to vote for Amy text HIGHLAND AMY to 88990 up until midnight on Thursday (March 20).
