For the second time, within the past two weeks, a young—VERY young—woman of Indian origin has rocked the stage at @AGT with raw talent that is simply astonishing.
With skills acquired in indigenous American genres of music. Rock & Gospel.

The young talent from Florida sang Tina Turner's classic 'River Deep, Mountain High' and impressed judges Simon Cowell and Heidi Klum. Impressed by her performance, Klum awarded her the golden buzzer, sending her straight to the live shows. A video of her performance has gone viral.
"I always just love singing. It makes me feel happy. Even when I was four years old, I would pretend that I have a microphone, and I would sing like I'm singing to the whole world," Mishra said, according to a report.
Mishra's feat comes close on the heels of Maya Neelakantan's performance on the show. The 10-year-old Chennai-born guitar prodigy, had won the hearts of the judges and audience on the reality show with her rendition of Papa Roach's 'Last Resort'.
Anand Mahindra had showered praise on Maya, calling her a "rock goddess."
You make us all proud Maya. Your ability to cross cultures & musical forms is a gift. Treasure & nurture it.
