Morristown’s Got Talent; FAB 3 siblings set sights on gold

Third place wasn’t enough for the Wawrzniak siblings.

Sofia “Fia,” 12, Arthur “A.J.,” 11, and Isabella “Belle”, 11, took home the bronze at Morristown’s Got Talent two years ago as the F.A.B. 3, performing the rockabilly song “Proud and Humble.”

Since then, the three have been taking voice lessons together at the Original Music School in Morristown and Arthur is also taking drumming lessons, better preparing them for a return to the stage.

“This year we decided to give it a go again since we had so much fun the last time,” Sofia said. “We’ve worked really hard to step up our act to show that we’ve improved from two years ago. We definitely have some tough competition.”

On Feb. 25, they’ll bring two more years of experience to the Mayo Performing Arts Center, where they will sing and drum a cover of “Some Nights” by the band Fun.

“We heard Fun’s music and we really liked it,” Arthur said. “I loved the drums especially.”

Between rehearsals, the trio plan to watch some movies, “Big Hero 6” and “The Hobbit” are two of their new favorites, and the TV show “Once Upon A Time.”

But most of their free time will be focused on improving.

“Practice, practice, practice,” Arthur said. “We worked really hard and hopefully we’ll bring it on performance night.”

As for what’s next for the FAB 3?

“I have no idea,” Isabella said, “But hopefully lots more singing.”
