Bryan Olesen’s blind audition caught the judges’ eye right away in a YouTube video. Three of the four judges turned their chairs

in response to his completely original and nearly faultless singing voice, demonstrating their instant interest in this man with a remarkable voice.

Just as Bryan was about to start singing the first line of One Republic’s song ‘Love Runs Out,’ John Legend, Dan + Shay,

and Reba McEntire turned their chairs to face him. To say that the 49-year-old’s singing performance left the judges utterly amazed would be an understatement.

Bryan received great feedback for this audition from Reba and John.Bryan was praised by the Queen of Country Music as ‘absolutely incredible.’

But John went above and beyond anything even Reba did. Bryan’s audition, he said, was ‘the best we’ve seen.’

Bryan seems to be completely at ease on stage and has the voice of an experienced performer. He was in complete control of the space, more than at ease.

It will be intriguing to watch how far Bryan can go in the tournament with his amazing voice and stage presence.
