PASADENA, CALIFORNIA: In a heartfelt episode of Season 18 of 'America's Got Talent', country music takes center stage with the emotional debut of Mitch Rossell. From the moment Rossell introduces himself, it becomes evident that his performance will tug at heartstrings. He shares that his journey in the music industry was inspired by his father, reminiscing about their cherished moments driving around, immersed in country melodies. Despite humble beginnings, Rossell's father worked tirelessly to save up and gift him a guitar, igniting his passion for playing. Following the tragic loss of his dad, Rossell faced the daunting task of navigating life without him. However, after high school, he resolved to honor his father's memory by picking up the guitar and reconnecting through music.

From that pivotal decision onward, there was no turning back for Rossell. He embarked on tours with renowned country musicians, including the legendary Garth Brooks. Fans, who recognized him from his performances alongside Brooks, were quick to express that it was time for Rossell to shine in his own right, stepping out of the shadows of other country singers. With his raw talent and heartfelt storytelling, Rossell's journey on 'America's Got Talent' promises to captivate audiences and leave an indelible mark on the country music scene.

Mitch Rossell wows 'AGT' audience with original song 'Son' 

In a poignant and heartfelt audition, Mitch, a 35-year-old singer-songwriter from East Tennessee, reveals the tragedy that struck his family at a young age, with a drunk driving accident claiming the lives of his father, grandfather, and grandmother-in-law. Despite initially pursuing sports, Mitch eventually finds solace in music, picking up a guitar after high school to forge a connection with his late father. With tears in his eyes, he takes the stage to perform an original song titled 'Son,' which chronicles the pain of losing his dad but concludes with a twist—the arrival of his own son, a source of healing and renewal. The judges are deeply moved by Mitch's heartfelt performance. Heidi describes the song as beautiful, while Howie, as a father of three, relates to the emotions conveyed and predicts it will soar to the top of the charts by morning. Sofia expresses her awe, labeling it amazing, and Simon is unequivocal in his praise, declaring the audition to be sincere and extraordinary. With unanimous agreement, the judges grant Mitch a well-deserved four "yeses," recognizing his immense talent and the emotional depth he brought to the stage.

'Been Gareth Brook's secret weapon for too long. His time to shine.'

One said, "I’m from East Tennessee,I googled him. He has already toured with Garth Brooks.", while another said, " LOVED Mitchel Rosells song!!. Great storyteller! Beautiful voice!! He needs to go into country music with Garth, Tim McGraw, Chris Stapleton, any of them." Another recalled, "when I saw you open up for Garth brooks about 5 years ago I knew you were going to be something special. You showed the world tonight on #AGT. Keep up the great work." One called out, "#agt does no one know that most of these people are not amateurs? For instance- Mitch opened for Garth Brooks!", to which another remarked, "He opened for Garth bc Garth knew him personally & gave him a shot. He's an independent artist that needs a record deal to get his music out to the general public. Without a record deal, you don't get played on the radio." Another concluded, "@mitch_rossell's "Son" is one of the best pieces of original music I have heard on #AGT. Bravo, Mitch!!!"
