Colby, a promising 19-year-old country star, entered the stage, which was a really amazing American Idol experience.
In addition to never having taken a vocal lesson, he had never performed in front of a large crowd.
He even claimed that he had never left Texas, where he was born, previously!
The jurors were completely floored by his performance of Freddy Fender’s “Before the Next Teardrop Falls.”
Following his presentation, adjudicator and country music icon Luke Bryan developed a bond with the young cowboys.
He said, “Well, I am not really sure if a child has ever come in here and been much more me at 19.”
Then, a really surprising event took place. He was instructed to pull up his feet so he could see the bottoms of his shoes.
They were worn out, ripped up, and frayed. The bottom was reached via the holes directly!
He said, “Colby, what size shoe are you?” It’s commonly known that Luke is a wonderful person in general.
Kelly, Luke’s sister, died tragically in 2007 when she was at home with her infant boy due to an undetermined cause.
Ben continued to raise the couple’s three children. Unfortunately, Ben too passed away unexpectedly in 2014.
Right away, He and his wife Caroline chose to adopt all three of the kids as their own.
The audience members’ cries of joy when Luke did something good for Colby were not really a surprise.
