America’s Got Talent Season 12 runner-up Angelica Hale recently shared a video on Instagram in which she performs “Rise Up” by Andra Day, her audition song back in 2017. Hale was just 9 years old when she tried out for the show.
Angelica Hale Performs AGT Audition Song Years Later
On Tuesday, Angelica Hale posted a video on Instagram in which she can be seen performing with another young singer named Echo Picone, who plays the piano. The pair teamed up for a duet of “Rise Up” by Andra Day.
This was the song Hale performed in her original audition for AGT Season 12, earning four “yes” votes from the judges. She went on to receive the Golden Buzzer during the Judge Cuts, and made it all the way to the finale, finishing in second place behind winner Darci Lynne Farmer.
Now 18, Hale still sounds amazing on her new rendition of the song, and her voice blends beautifully with Picone’s. It’s easy to see why Hale currently has 1.6 million followers on the platform, as fans want to follow what she’s up to nearly 10 years after her debut on AGT.
Hale Received Two Golden Buzzers on AGT
Hale made history on AGT as the first act to receive two Golden Buzzers. Her first came in Season 12 during the Judge Cuts, when she performed “Girl on Fire” by Alicia Keys. Guest judge Chris Hardwick was so impressed that he gave her the honor.
In 2019, Hale returned to the Got Talent stage for AGT: The Champions, where she earned yet another Golden Buzzer for her first performance. Her rendition of “Fight Song” by Rachel Platten inspired judge Howie Mandel to do the honors, sending her straight to the finale.
Hale didn’t end up winning Champions, but she’s still had an impressive career, releasing several singles and EPs and making her Broadway debut in Boop! The Musical last year.
