Despite not having any official training or experience, he was ready to showcase his raw talent on the biggest stage he had ever been on, alongside his girlfriend.
Who is Tanner Charles?
Tanner Charles Luetjen is just 20 years old and from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. He completed his primary education at Mingo Valley Christian School, followed by a year of college at Tulsa Community College and Oral Roberts University.
Career

They then asked him to audition, and due to the pandemic, he was able to skip the virtual audition rounds and have meetings with the executive producer via Zoom.
After receiving a “Yes” from them, he had the opportunity to appear on the original stage in Nashville in front of real celebrities. Previously, he had sung songs in Broken Arrow churches, referring to himself as a “worship leader for Battle Creek Church of Broken Arrow.”
