A TADLEY teenager has made it through to the area finals of Open Mic UK singing competition.

Mya Boyd, from Wolverton Common, made the cut after wowing the crowds with her version of the John Legend track All of Me which she sang while playing her acoustic guitar.

The 13-year-old, who hopes to pursue a career in performing arts, will make it through to the national grand final if she manages to impress judges once again in the live showcase at The Beck Theatre, in Hayes, last Sunday. Mya attends The Hurst Community College, where she has singing and piano lessons, and recently won The Hurst Got Talent internal competition.
