First Discovered on America’s Got Talent
For millions of viewers around the world, the Detroit Youth Choir first came into the spotlight on America’s Got Talent, where their electrifying performances captivated audiences and judges alike.
During their unforgettable audition, host Terry Crews was so moved by the choir’s performance that he awarded them the Golden Buzzer, sending them directly to the live shows. The choir continued their remarkable journey, ultimately finishing as runner-up in the Season 14 finals and establishing themselves as one of the most memorable and inspiring groups ever to appear on the show.
Led by Artistic Director Anthony White, the Detroit Youth Choir has spent more than two decades empowering young people through music, performance, and education. Their remarkable journey of talent, perseverance, and community impact was also featured in the Disney+ documentary series Choir.
Introducing VOICES WE RISE
This new song celebrates unity, courage, hope, and the extraordinary power of young voices coming together.
Inspired by the spirit and energy of the Detroit Youth Choir and the ARTSONG vision of combining music with visual storytelling, VOICES WE RISE is being created as an emotional anthem of strength, determination, and possibility.
The project brings together the energy of youth, the power of choral voices, and Marc’s signature ARTSONG storytelling — where art moves and music drives the story forward.
VOICES WE RISE is more than a song. It is a celebration of what can happen when voices unite, dreams are shared, and young people are given the opportunity to rise together.
More updates, behind-the-scenes moments, and release information will be announced soon.
