The classically trained 11th-grade student at Shaker High School first realized the promise of her talents performing karaoke as a 10-year-old alongside the sounds of Celine Dion – whom she calls one of her biggest musical inspirations.

Kathy’s Comeback

VanDenburg recently released her debut single, is currently writing new songs for her first EP and performs live across the Capital Region. Madison VanDenburg performs at The Crossings of Colonie in a “homecoming” on Tuesday, May 14, 2019, in advance of Sunday’s appearance as a finalist on the “American Idol” TV show. See Story pg. 11
