Sometimes bone-chilling talent shows up in random places. And in this case, a Texan named Kourtney White posted a video of herself and her cousin Kenyetta Gray on Facebook, blowing the roof off the house with a cover of Chris Stapleton‘s rendition of “Tennessee Whiskey.”
The two women absolutely own the song, and it looks as if White is ready to seek the next level for her talent. On her Instagram account, she shares clips of her vocal endeavors, and offers a link for viewers to check out her YouTube videos (her most popular one, a cover of “All I Ask” by Adele, is currently at 21,000 views and counting).
Hey. Luke Bryan? Are you and your fellow American Idol judges listening? Or don’t be surprised if we see this young lady vying for Blake Shelton’s attention on the new season of The Voice!
“Tennesse Whiskey” is off Stapleton’s 2015 release Traveller, and gained much acclaim when he performed it with Justin Timberlake at the 49th annual Country Music Association Awards. The song was originally recorded by David Allen Coe in 1981, and then George Jones in 1983.
