Samuel was raised in a beautifully diverse family as one of five adopted children. He spent most of his childhood playing outdoors in rural Indiana, but grew up watching his dad perform in the family bluegrass band. Samuel didn’t realize he had a natural gift for music until he landed the lead in his middle school musical. He went on to teach himself guitar and piano and started gigging after high school. Samuel is now a full-time musician and is a single father to his four-year-old son. Samuel is ready for his big break and hopes to make his family and his son proud as he takes center stage on “The Voice”
