      He's releasing a new album of his own originals that he produced, Hide Your Ghost, sometime this spring. It will probably include this song that people say "holy crap" when they hear it live: ua-cam.com/video/yZwzpCUcgns/v-deo.html

    When my man and I first heard you on the voice singing A Man of Constant Sorrow we immediately said this guys gonna win and fell in love with your voice. I was pregnant with our first child, a son. We hadn't came close to finding a name. When you finished and they asked your name and you said Sawyer we just turned to each other said your name out loud to each other and pretty much new that would be our first borns name. He is a month from 4 now and his name is so fitting Sawyer Bryant Rogers. So glad you're still performing and making music! Your voice is more then amazing it's captivating!

    I was THERE when he did this. I was blown away at the time, and I'm blown away again now. My friend Wanda Fischer, host of The Hudson River Sampler on WAMC, was so impressed with Sawyer's rendition of this song she asked him to perform it in September when he was a guest on her show.

      They also improvised some accompaniment, which was a great compliment. Sawyer is an amazingly original songwriter and is getting attention at folk and songwriter's festivals and events around the country. That is, when he's not touring with his band or recording and producing albums.

      It sounded perfect-and the back-up was improvised by other musicians at a folk festival workshop. I liked the simplicity of this rendition, but Sawyer showed off guitar skills in another performance on tour in Oklahoma: ua-cam.com/video/Ah86_ywnvIY/v-deo.html

      His covers are always special. But I find his original music more interesting and on fire. Here's this mostly self-taught young folk/Americana dude who writes his own songs whose band of musicians are jazz music majors. He was the youngest male winner of The Voice (US) 5 years ago and has since released 3 albums of his originals. This is a song he wrote while doing The Voice (age 16) mostly about his disillusionment and homesickness. It's show-stopping good. ua-cam.com/video/ofk0X_voKjE/v-deo.html
