Native pride . Represent my Choctaw brother.
Just wow. The level of maturity at 15. His voice tells his story. Rooting for him to win not only Idol but also in life.
Too bad he's brainwashed by #ImaginaryOldManInTheSky #PatriarchyBS #FairyTales #Delusions #BrainwashingWeakMinds #Propaganda
Beautifully said! ❤
Amen❤hallelujah
I love this boy he is my winner🥰
we have a winner.
I agree 209%
He's got the voice of an older man who's been through life
I feel the mother's pain and this should also shine a light on native American women and the things they go through. . .it is time America took care of our first people and their SOULS this time.
Hard times aged this young boy's heart.
Guys please check out Ripley Alexander of Australian Idol 2024. That's a world-class voice.
tell me what you think.
He got a nice tone fr every time he open his mouth it sounds like butter
For sure he didn't have it easy, but you know what feels weird about these auditions?
They stand in front of three people they haven't met and the first 2 sentences into their conversation are like:
- I grew up in a small town.... I've been through a lot in my life....
... awkward silence - time for tears
It's so sudden that it feels...manufactured. So it's either these people have become professional victims or the show is clearly staging where these conversations go by telling them something like they're gonna ask you whats your story and you're gonna have to say all the sad things we talked about in the interview. Because you need to say all these things in the little time you have so you get the audience invested in you before you start singing.....
It's cheap. It makes me wanna skip any contestants that do this and that on its own is unfair for them because they might be great singers.

You do know they edit for tv/media, right? They cut out a lot to get the story across in a short amount of time.
I am in Australia. My children and I have chosen our winner......Tristan Harper.......Amazing and Beautiful and Talented and so Mature......even his voice is mature. Our votes are with you Tristan.......even though we cannot vote from over here. All the best. xx
That baby had me in tears. The Lord has really blessed that baby to become a good person in life, not only for himself..but, for his family a well. I know they’ll love to see him prosper in life. You can tell his mother and his grandparents are humbled individuals. You can tell he’s really a mature kid as well.
Agree. God is blessing him for persevering.
Choctaw Indian… we come from all places.. wish you the best young man..❤❤
this kid is so authentic and likable.....and his voice and storytelling lights up your soul....
Is an old soul in a young man's body. I can see the conflictions in the beautiful young man. Lord please keep him and his family safe.
I am NOT a fan of country but, I AM a fan of this kid. He's talented.
Holy balls. What a voice for a 15 year old. Damn.
This is a 15 year old who had to grow up young and with a hard life seems very respectful. Good luck!
You are recording Grammy winner. Please don’t ever stop singing. You are a blessing to the world sign you up and give you a contract now.
Amen.
Agreed🎉🎉🎉
THE EAGLES ARE SINGING IN THE SKIES WITH THIS YOUNG MAN...... they are dancing in the skies to his voice and guitar playing
I never really like to watch country auditions but this one was really special. What this young man has gone through really symbolizes what the genre itself is about, blues and heart.
I'm from Ireland and there is something special about him. He is well mannered, humble but most of all , he has this beautiful heart for family. It's important to him. You can see this. I hope he goes far. Love American Country. It always says a story and resonates with what I have gone through in my life. Love this little fella.❤
😊
Why exactly do u not like country music?
@@alfiewoodley01 I don’t hate it particularly it’s just not my favorite genre of music; by that I mean I don’t listen to it often. I do however get why people love it and how it makes them feel.
those lyrics are deep as hell.
Triston is 15 and he has the voice of an older country singer! Now that’s talent!
I haven’t watched IDOL in so long. But this kid is worth backing!!!!
He’s got the BEST Paw Paw ever ! ❤️
So impressed by the young man's composure and maturity.
I think I found my guy! I love just listening to him talk, let alone sing. If he doesn’t win, he will definitely go far.
he’s top five material for sure
I've got news for Luke. There is nothing anyone needs to change about this young man.
My thoughts exactly. Jealousy maybe?
Young man is giving me the emotions Iam Tongi gave in his first performance
He may be 15, but the music genius in him is shining bright!
OMG~ He leaves you wanting to hear more~
Man he is only 15 years old, Kicking butt
This young man sounds like a grown man. It’s sad, but true that abuse and trauma can cause a child to “grow up” quickly. It’s wonderful that he seems to have a close - knit, supportive family. I wish them all success.
He literally sounds like people from McIntosh do........ it’s the everyday accent round there
Country gets everything in it from a hard life. This young man may be 15 but that voice is a senior citizen. raw talent
Could this be the next American Idol .. I think so !
He 15 and his voice deeper than mine at 58!! Go young man go!!!
Every now and then a voice will come and erase the need for production. This young man has it.
Unbelievable.
NAILED IT! I hope the judges really take him under their wings and turn on the mentorship BIG TIME- they owe it to a young man like that and it is their job.
And yes he needs a break or a chance of encouragement to make him a happier life.
He gave me chills when he went to that high notes!!!!
I've fallen in love with this guy as a singer - He's just got something authentic and special. Something about him that makes me want him to do well. God bless 🙏

What a unique twang and voice. I love his character and strength. Brings me to tears. He sings what he lives. He is a story teller. American Idol use him for good. Love him.....
You’re saying that you have to be country to win American Idol.

He’s 15 and has gone through hell and back. Love his voice, his voice is raw and authentic. He doesn’t have to be perfect he just has to connect with the audience.
I'll attend his concert tomorrow. What a shining light. Inside & out.
growing up faster.. not easy.
remember the roots. always.
God has got you.

I would buy an album. God bless him. I am cheering him on for the win!
What a beautiful boy with a beautiful voice.
Man… you can’t teach that voice. Top 10 for sure
You predicted it!!
Just makes me feel extra special to know he is a fellow Alabamian. I love hearing the south in this young mans voice. Fantastic audition.
He is 15 going on 40-life can do that but those hard times hes experienced will only make adulthood that much more rich. He is so mature. He's got a great voice and it's still has more to develop. I wish this young man the world. Cant wait to see him take off.
He does not need to win American Idol to take off.
I love everything about him.
What a Sweet young man. I imagine this to just be the beginning for him.
Singing from his core, music resonates out of his body
I LOVE his speaking voice. And he's definitely got some talent. Hope he does well at Hollywood week.
God bless this young man protect him and his family. Wow what a voice.
Choctaw Indian from Oklahoma here…his story and voice brought me to tears. Great job young man
Pure raw talent..has lived it all already! Tristan is a star!!❤️❤️
TRISTAN is my ALL TIME favorite contestant ever on this show! This child brings tears to my eyes every time he speaks. I can't help but cry tears of joy, tears of pain, tears of hope.. He is going to be the greatest success story, I can not wait to watch him grow and Dominate the country music community and his life!! Many would become victims of circumstance, BUT he still chooses to love and conquer. HE IS GOING TO BIG PLACES, AND I FEEL HONORED TO HAVE WITNESSED THE BEGINNING OF HIS JOURNEY ❤❤❤
He will be one of the stories of this year 🎉🎉
mom please don't cry your son is there with you doing a fine job and i hope them tears are happy ones
He won in my eyes. Had a rough life, God is blessing him now. Go Tristen, sing your heart out. We LOVE YOU.

He’s been here before. U can tell he’s an old soul.
All that twang, very easy on the ears, bringing the emotion and looking just comfortable as can be
I'm really happy for this young man. I hope he does well and learns a lot 🙏
I just wanna hug this kid
I’m not a big country fan, but this young man is something special.
I like him A LOT. Looove his voice...don't ever lose that Alabama accent.❤❤❤

It was not perfect but the fact that he is so soulful you don't mind the imperfection. His voice cuts through in each word he sang from that song. So raw and mesmerizing. Goodluck bro!
