Hey guys, I am also posting this like others have in the past for any ideas for songs to sing, I am a bass. I would really appreciate anything at this time, thanks guys :)
There aren't really any parts for baritones in the show, so I would suggest singing as a high a song as you can that still sounds comfortable in your range.
I auditoned at the NY open call back in April and they are looking for rockish songs or folky. I sang 'I Don't Wanna Be' by Gavin Degraw and I know a lot of people brought their own instruments and such and were able to play original material. My friend sang 'Chariot' by Gavin Degraw and a I know I was told by someone they are sick of Beatles songs, so I don't know.
I'd say try a few different songs before picking your final. I know I went through a ton of options before landing on what I chose. Best of luck to you! It's a great experience!

If you are what they are looking for....it doesn't really matter what you sing. You need to find what shows off your strengths.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
