During a specific date range, I picked the audition time that suited me best. I was told to prepare a chorus and a verse of my favorite song - at the time it was Do I Wanna Know by the Arctic Monkeys. I entered the audition room where all the member of the Crosstones were sitting, ready to assess me. The musical director gave me various musical tasks so as to know my vocal range and my listening ability. I then sang my solo without background accompaniment.
For the callback audition, I was given sheet music for Coldplay's Fix You. I studied the bass part with a bass singer from the Crosstones and other auditioners. For the audition itself, I sang my part with the rest of the group twice. I left the room, and that evening I received a phone call congratulating me.
