“The quality of National Anthem renditions at sporting events across the country has continued to grow over the years,” said BlueClaws General Manager Brandon Marano. “We have had outstanding performers here at FirstEnergy Park and we expect that to continue in 2014.”
All National Anthem auditions will be performed a capella. Instruments will be permitted, but only those that do not require electricity. Singers can apply individually or as a group.

Those interested in performing the anthem as a group can contact Kristine Tranz at 732-901-7000 ext. 140 or ktranz@­blueclaws.­com.

Applications will be reviewed on a first-come-first-served basis and performance times are subject to availability. All applicants will be notified by phone regarding a prospective audition, but applicants are not guaranteed an audition. Decisions will not be made the day of the event, and all who audition will be notified at a later date with regards to a performance at FirstEnergy Park in Lakewood. All judges’ decisions are final.

The BlueClaws have led the South Atlantic League in attendance in all 13 years of existence and are the Jersey Shore’s top stop for affordable, family entertainment.
