Adding up: Mason Ramsey has always been a precocious child—his family says he was crooning and harmonizing before he could talk. By age 4, Ramsey was singing at the Kentucky Opry, and he got on stage with country music legend Kenny Rogers at age 7. So in 2018, when a video of the 11-year-old yodeling to Hank Williams’ “Love Sick Blues” in a Walmart went viral, the rest of the world finally caught up with him. A few weeks, and millions of YouTube views later, Ramsey made an appearance on “Ellen,” then performed at the Grand Ole Opry, Coachella, and the Stagecoach Festival. He will finish his headlining How’s Your Girl & How’s Your Family Tour Part 2 in time to celebrate his 12th birthday.
