Ben Waites will be auditioning for NBC’s America’s Got Talent (AGT) on Tuesday, July 12, 2022, at 8 p.m. ET. He and the other contenders will give their best performances to impress the judges and the live audience in order to advance and maybe win the competition. The AGT competitor is shown singing his original song “True Colors” in an early release preview footage by NBC, which had judge Sofia Vergara cry and offer a standing ovation together with the other two judges, Simon Cowell and Heidi Klum.
He found Chromesthesia, a form of synthesia in which sounds automatically inspire a perception of color, shape, or movement, during his early singing career. He is a vocal instructor and has devoted his performance to his pupils.
Ben Waites was born with a medical problem.
Ben Waites’ performance is guaranteed to wow the AGT judges and audience. Given that he received a standing ovation from the judges, he may go to the next round. The singer had to overcome personal challenges in order to compete, and she had to come out strong while still fighting them. However, with the assistance of his music, he has triumphed over his difficulties.
Ben was born in 1989 with Arthrogryposis, a medical ailment. This disease affects the joints, most often the arms and legs. Ben, on the other hand, was undeterred, continuing to brighten his and others’ spirits with his songs. The AGT competitor was nurtured by grandparents who instilled in him a strong set of Christian ideals. He was raised with a deep faith in God, which has helped him persevere through terrible circumstances in life. Ben was influenced at an early age by his grandpa, a prominent vocalist and creator of the Gospel Tones Quartet.
Although he was essentially tone-deaf at first, he quickly developed a “mental vision” in which he could link various colors with his tunes. He matched the colors he imagined to the pitch. He detailed how he found his unusual skill on his website:
“At first, it puzzled me because I had all these varied hues in my brain.” When I sing, I hear a deep crimson and some green. I can match the pitch and read the style of the music with it. It’s almost as though there’s a link there. That was the main thing that helped me with music. All I had was color since I couldn’t read music or grasp technique.”

Ben received his bachelor’s degree in music, communications, and theatrical arts from Louisiana College in December 2010.
