    Sawyer Christopher Fredericks (born March 31, 1999) is an American singer-songwriter who won the eighth season of The Voice in 2015. Choosing Pharrell Williams as his coach, Fredericks set series iTunes sales records and became the second youngest winner in series history alongside Danielle Bradbery (both at the age of 16), until Season 14 winner, Brynn Cartelli, won at the age of 15. Fredericks was born to Kirsten L. and Carl F. Fredericks on March 31, 1999 in Newtown, Connecticut, the youngest of three brothers. At age eight, his family moved to an 88-acre farm near Fultonville, New York. He is home-schooled using the Unschooling method.[5] At age 11, Fredericks received voice training and began performing regionally at farmers markets, open mics, community events, and folk clubs (such as The Bitter End in New York City). He was a finalist in the Young Artist Talent Search in Pawling, New YorkFor the May 18, 2015 finale show, Fredericks released the single "Please" (an original song written by Ray Lamontagne) and an accompanying music video. For his duet selection, Fredericks and Williams performed the Seals and Crofts tune "Summer Breeze". The show ended with Fredericks' cover of Neil Young's "Old Man". By noon the next day, "Summer Breeze" had reached the nineteenth position on iTunes, "Old Man" the third, and "Please" the second. On the May 19, 2015 results show, Fredericks shared the stage with John Fogerty in a medley of Creedence Clearwater Revival hits - "Born on the Bayou", "Bad Moon Rising" and "Have You Ever Seen the Rain". Apparent audio problems affected the broadcast.[22] Fredericks was declared the winner at the end of the show, with Meghan Linsey second, Joshua Davis third, and Koryn Hawthorne fourth. Winning contestants receive $100,000 and a recording contract with Republic Records. According to Republic, Fredericks broke many series sales records for The Voice, with ten singles reaching the iTunes top 10, and 14 singles charting in the Top 200 during the final week. A total of nearly one million digital singles were sold in the course of the show. Throughout the competition Frederick's maintained a strong social media presence, with leading numbers of followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. in 2012.

    I am 70 years old and grew up with the evolution of rock and roll as well as the that of country to country rock. I was always amazed with the songs and sounds of Bob Dylan and Arlo Guthrie. My generation is getting old now but when I first heard Sawyer on FOX AND FRIENDS I WAS TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY WITH HIS VOICE AND SONGS. It is a rebirth for me and reinstalled my faith in the emerging sounds of the 2000's. Yes there are a lot of very good groups , bands and single artist but Sawyer to me is the new Dylan and Guthrie of this time. Thank God there is still someone very different, very soul soothing and very genuine. I wish him nothing but the best and I am sure he will continue to be himself.

      At age 14 Sawyer sang at an open mic at Caffe Lena, the oldest continuously running coffee house in the US. Dylan and Arlo Guthrie also cut their teeth there in the early 60's. You might enjoy youtube video "Where the Music Never Dies" by Caffe Lena. If you haven't heard it yet, check out Sawyer's album "A Good Storm" and look for upcoming album, "Hide Your Ghost."

      Absolutely! His voice brings out so much emotion I find myself tearing up sometimes when he sings. The music he writes is beautiful and haunting. So far beyond his years. I'm lucky enough to live about an hour away from his family farm and I've seen him perform 4 times (so far!). He is unchanged by all of the success. I can't wait for him to record another CD. "A Good Storm" is fabulous -- the product of the record deal he got when winning The Voice. Every song was penned by Sawyer, a huge win for Sawyer and his fans.

      Have you heard his original music or seen him live? He says he hasn't necessarily experienced the things he writes about in his songs, but tries to understand what it would feel like. Before playing some of the more serious songs he sometimes closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, as if putting himself in the right mind frame for the song. Here he is singing one that he says was inspired by his experience of feeling angry and out of place when he went from the farm to Hollywood for the show. ua-cam.com/video/yZwzpCUcgns/v-deo.html

    There is such emotion in his voice, authentic, simple, beautiful. No phony emoting, tricks, or show biz vanity. It is so moving. As Kay (below) so beautifully says, Sawyer sings from his soul in purity and power. He taps into the truth. This is why the judges keep saying you can't teach what he does; and why Blake the other night just shook his head and softly said, "Dang it. Dang it." I like that. Sawyer simply IS.

      Linda Dahlman Talent plus for sure, but he doesn't play left and right handed. Some selfie videos taken with an i-phone are flipped horizontally (mirror image) which makes him appear to play left handed. His favorite guitar is a cutaway design, which was made for a right-handed player. To play left handed he would need a leftie guitar, or would have to reverse-string a non cutaway guitar.

    This young man is a storyteller. You don't find these anymore in the music world. Sadly, a lost art. It's not just singing a song or having a story in the lyrics; it's about sitting down and talking to your audience, as they sip their drinks, finding themselves swept into that place where only storytellers can take one. You just don't find that anymore in music.
    Willie Nelson, whether you care for his music or not, was the epitome of a storyteller. "To all the girls I loved before" isn't just a song, it's a story sung by a storyteller. As Sawyer grows more and more into his gift, I hope many more will appreciate exactly what a musical storyteller is all about. We have one in Sawyer.

Look at what he has accomplished on his own at such a young age. He's priceless. He is grounded by being raised in a loving family and living on a farm. No matter where he goes, he will always have that to keep him focused. He loves music and loves to share. I am blessed that he came along during my lifetime.

      It's partly the nature of the music business. He got a one album contract with Republic when he won The Voice, but it seems the deal doesn't include promotion. Most of the winners don't even get a full album out of it for various reasons. Sawyer got an EP, LP (A Good Storm) and music video (Take It All), but had issues with how the label did things, sometimes without his knowledge. He is now independent and entirely wrote and produced Hide Your Ghost album and is working on Flowers for You LP. This song will be on it: ua-cam.com/video/zWjcCuS1_Rs/v-deo.html

      Right. Sawyer's voice is mostly untrained, but he's a natural at connecting with the song on an emotional level and conveying that in the way he sings it. And he's much more than a singer, He says he started songwriting as soon as he learned a few chords on guitar. He's written 3 full albums of his originals (Out My Window at age 14, wrote/co-wrote A Good Storm at age 16, produced Hide Your Ghost at age 18) He's set to release his new production this spring, Flowers for You.
