Did you know the famous ventriloquist who won America’s Got Talent is now a serious singer? Darci Lynne began changing how people see her with a simple cover.
She started a challenge called “I sing a song with my mouth open and closed and you guys decide which one sounds better”. This video sent a clear message: she wants to be known first for her voice, not the puppet illusion.
Darci Lynne Singing Back To Black By Amy Winehouse
The performance features the soulful, classic song “Back to Black” by Amy Winehouse. First, she sings with her natural voice and an open mouth. Then, she tries to sing the same part using her ventriloquism skill with her mouth closed. She tells everyone right away that the “open” version was “definitely better”.
People agreed with her. Fans said, “We love you Darci even if you sing with your mouth closed or open!” Another said, “We need more covers with you singing.” Fans agreed that her skills are too good, regardless of how she performs.
However, her decision to showcase her singing is a big part of her plan to show people she’s more than just a puppet. This strategy includes her new solo music releases.
