America’s Got Talent fans were blown away by the violinist from North Carolina.

Tyler, an 11-year-old guitarist, won over the crowd and people watching at home. His performance was praised by the judges.

Tyler had other things that made him stand out. The four-year-old started taking violin lessons after being picked on at school because he had leukemia.

Tyler had trouble with therapy because he was teased at school for losing his hair.

He felt better when he saw an ad for free violin lessons after school. At age seven, he began playing the violin.

He said that with practice, he got better. “I only worked out in my room.” Every day was the same.
