Luke Bryan Sings Back Up During Unseen Performance From Francisco Martin - Inspirational Videos

18-year-old Francisco Martin stunned the judges with his initial audition on American Idol.

Now, we’re getting a closer look at this life-changing moment with a previously unreleased performance from this young talent. Francisco was full of nerves when he sat in front of the camera.

This pre-law college student shared that he always had a love for music, but he struggled with self-confidence. Thankfully, he was able to put all of the negative thoughts aside as he follows his dreams to pursue a career as a musician.

But, as soon as he stepped up to the judges, they could sense his overwhelming fear. That’s when Luke Bryan and Lionel Ritchie stepped away from their table to give Francisco a quick pep talk.

After the chance to calm down, Francisco continued on with his audition by singing ‘Alaska’ by Maggie Rogers. In the original audition, we also saw Francisco perform a snippet of one of his original songs.

In today’s clip, the 18-year-old talent can be heard belting out the lyrics to “Use Somebody” from Kings Of Leon. As the judges clap along to this brilliant performance, country star Luke Bryan can’t help but chime in.

As he provides the back up vocals to this unforgettable cover, we truly see Francisco shine. No wonder Luke wrote ‘winner’ on his piece of paper describing Francisco.

As he prepares for his place in the Top 20, we are all looking forward to what this young man sings next. Who else is rooting for Francisco?
