He wears that faded cap like a badge of honor for the legends. There is a weight in his voice that should not belong to a teenager. He is protecting a piece of our history. It is a quiet moment that feels like a masterpiece. You have to hear how he covers a Garth Brooks classic before you believe it.

One viewer said that his voice gave them chills they had not felt in thirty years. Another person mentioned that Garth Brooks himself would be proud of this tribute. It is rare to see someone so young respect the legends so deeply. He plays every note with a quiet strength. 

He took that same grit and honesty all the way to the big lights of national television. It was a massive leap from a food court to a stage in Hawaii. He had to prove that a country boy could command a crowd of thousands without losing his soul. He kept the same hat but found a much bigger stage.
