Euharlee Resident Travels to Birmingham to Claim Pigeon Forge Path To Fame Semi-Finalist Spot

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama—For the second year in a row, Euharlee, Georgia, resident Morgan Taylor won a semifinalist spot in the Pigeon Forge Path To Fame talent competition on Saturday, April 13. Taylor, who made the trip from Euharlee to Birmingham for the audition, was a semifinalist in last year’s Path To Fame competition. She will compete against 13 other performers for the 2019 grand championship prize on June 22 in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.

Taylor was an expectant mother at last year’s competition. This year, her seven-month-old son cheered her on from the audience.

Taylor, 28, was one of six semi-finalists selected from 30 Path To Fame contestants at WorkPlay in downtown Birmingham.

The Pigeon Forge Path To Fame talent competition grand champion will win a year of monthly consultations with the Nashville-based talent executive who discovered Grammy nominated artist Kelsea Ballerini. Also, the winner will receive a consultation with country artist Carly Pearce. Professional photography and videography session, media training and introductions to other entertainment industry executives complete the grand prize package which includes tools to help the winner advance his/her/their career.

“Birmingham brought out some incredibly talented performers on Saturday,” said Nashville entertainment executive Alexander. “Our final stop nicely rounds out the Path To Fame finals on June 22 in Pigeon Forge.”

Home to a variety of musical productions and dinner shows, Pigeon Forge’s theatre community has helped launch the careers of Pearce, who performed at Dollywood theme park, American Idol alum Janelle Arthur, Grand Ole Opry member Craig Morgan and soap star Eric Martsolf.

To earn her semi-finalist spot, Taylor, 28, performed “Love Song” by Miranda Lambert, one of her musical influences. Others who have helped shape her music include Jennifer Nettles, Loretta Lynn, Chris Stapleton and Credence Clearwater Revival.
