Alex Sampson Nervous Singer STUNS Judges With “Retro” Vocals

In a remarkable display of talent and composure, 20-year-old Canadian singer-songwriter Alex Sampson captivated the judges and audience of “America’s Got Talent” (AGT) with his original song, “Pretty Baby.” Hailing from Atikokan, Ontario, Sampson’s performance stood out for its retro-inspired vocals and heartfelt delivery.

During his audition, Sampson openly acknowledged his nervousness, yet he channeled that energy into a performance that resonated deeply with both the judges and viewers. The judges unanimously praised his unique sound and songwriting prowess, with Simon Cowell noting the nostalgic quality of his voice.

 

Following the broadcast, “Pretty Baby” experienced a significant surge in popularity, climbing to number 10 on the iTunes chart. Reflecting on this achievement, Sampson expressed his astonishment, stating, “I was above Sabrina Carpenter at one point, which was really cool.”

Building on his momentum, Sampson released another single titled “If You Were My Girl” and announced plans for an upcoming EP slated for release later this summer. He has also scheduled a performance in Los Angeles on August 29.

 

Sampson’s decision to audition for AGT was driven by the show’s expansive reach. He remarked, “It’s bigger than The Voice or Idol. My grandma even watches AGT. I wanted to get my original music out there for everyone to hear and bring it to a wider audience.”

As the competition progresses, Sampson intends to continue showcasing his original compositions, aiming to connect with audiences through his distinctive musical style and authentic performances.
