Avery Dixon’s emotional audition might make you cry. Terry Crews was moved to tears when he heard Avery’s sensational saxophone skills and harrowing story about being bullied.
The first episode of America’s Got Talent Season 17 welcomed Avery Dixon, a saxophonist from Atlanta, Georgia. The 21-year-old mesmerized everyone with his mind-blowing performance. He also touched hearts with his backstory of being bullied in high school that made him want to end his life. This was when his love for music helped him stay strong and face his fears.
His life story made everybody emotional, including the judges and the host. While the judges were appreciating his performance, host Terry approached the panel and pressed the Golden Buzzer, which meant he would not have to go through another audition round. He will appear directly during the live performances.
