Receiving letters of introduction is just one of the many ways that this site is led to young talented musicians and vocalists. It was my Facebook friend Anthony Berube that led me to a young man with a voice bigger than life itself, and a talent for showmanship that outshines most youngsters his age.
I’m talking about the amazing thirteen year old vocalist and musician Andrew Muccitelli.
After receiving the tip from Anthony, I immediately went to Andrew’s YouTube Site to check out all of his videos. What I found was truly outstanding and I could not wait to share it with everyone so I posted Andrews’s video shown below on May 20th to Young Artists Global. I received a few comments all stating how talented Andrew was and it was from those comments that I learned that Andrew had been a participant on X-Factor Season Six.
