Music career

Early life

After graduating in 2000 from Wichita Southeast High School in Wichita, Kansas, Mann attended Vanderbilt University. He graduated from Vanderbilt's Blair School of Music in 2004 with a degree in vocal performance.[3] Mann was a member of the Sigma Nu Fraternity where his pledge name was Buttercup.Шаблон:Citation needed

After graduation, Mann was cast in an Italian opera in Europe.[4] After moving to Los Angeles, he obtained numerous studio and group singing gigs, including Dalton Academy "Warbler #6" on an episode of Glee,[5] the Sundance Film Festival, and the AFI Life Achievement Award 2010.[6]

His studio work has been featured in the film Avatar, Glee: The 3D Concert Movie, Letters to Juliet, Tangled, Sex and the City 2, The Smurfs, 2012 and The Philanthropist.[7] His recording of "L.O.V.E." was featured in a commercial[8] for season two of Khloé & Lamar, and he has recorded music with Heather Headley, performed with Katharine McPhee, and toured with India Arie and Idina Menzel.[7]

The Voice

Mann participated in the second season of the singing reality show The Voice, ultimately placing fourth.[9] He was initially chosen by judges Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green after singing Andrea Bocelli's "Because We Believe (Ama Credi E Vai)". He chose to be part of Team Christina Aguilera, on whose team he had hoped to be selected from the start.[10]

He advanced to the live shows by defeating Monique Benabou in a duet of "The Power of Love". In his first live show, he performed "Bridge over Troubled Water" by Simon & Garfunkel, which earned him a pass to the next round by public vote. During the quarter-finals, he covered "Viva la Vida" by Coldplay, and was again selected for advancement to the semi-finals by public vote. He advanced to the finals, edging out Lindsey Pavao, after singing "Ave Maria".

For the finale, he soloed "You Raise Me Up", sang "The Prayer" in a duet with Aguilera, and covered Aguilera's "The Voice Within". During the final results show, Mann performed "Bitter Sweet Symphony" by The Verve for his final performance with previously eliminated semi-finalists Pavao and Katrina Parker.[11] Mann consistently received praise from the other coaches; Cee Lo Green called Mann's voice "incomparable",[12] while Blake Shelton called Mann a "powerhouse" and a "really strong singer".[13]

It was to also feature season ten winner Alisan Porter, Mary Sarah (season 10), Matthew Schuler (season 5), and Matt McAndrew (season 7), and to be backed by a band led by Michael Sanchez.[21] It was announced in October 2018 that the show would not go ahead.[22]

COVID-19 parodies

In 2020, Mann produced several COVID-19-themed musical parodies on YouTube. Several went viral, including parodies of "Hello", originally by Adele, and "Old Town Road".[23]
