Americas Got TalentWe posted a couple of months ago about The Wright Kids, a trio of young bluegrass pickers who have been selected to compete in the third season of NBC’s hugely popular show, America’s Got Talent.

The Wright Kids are just that – Sage (mandolin/fiddle) is 12, Baruch (guitar) is 9, and Levi (bass) is 6.

After being invited to audition for the show’s judges, the Wrights are set to appear on tonight’s (8/27) program, where they will perform live. Viewer voting this evening will determine whether they return to perform again on next week’s show.

You can hear audio samples from their new CD, Playing On The Job, on The Wright Kids web site, along with some video of them live on stage.

Far be it from us to suggest that you all tune in and cast a vote for the cute young grassers. Let your conscience be your guide, tonight at 8:00 p.m. (EDT).

We’re just saying…
