SpinTunes 25 Round 3 Results

The Round 3 results are in, and what fascinating results they are. Remember, the top four artists from this round move on to the Final Round, but so does our Wild Card contestant - the artist from outside the top four with the best combined ranks from all three rounds. That means we've got some extra calculating to do.

But first, let's stick to this round. In an unusual turn of events, we have a tie for first place. Earning their joint spot at the top of the podium are David Taro with his song "One Hit Wonder" and The Alleviators with "Song of the Ravaged".

That leaves third and fourth place to move on as well, but in an usual turn of events (hereafter abbreviated IAUTOE), we have no fourth place finisher, because there's also a tie for third place! This Big Old Endless Sky and Huge Shark earned identical scores, sending them to the final round as well.

But wait, it gets weirder. Keep reading for the full Round 3 results and to find out who the Wild Card contestant will be.
