New Elvis? New Legend. Drake Milligan Owns the AGT Stage!
When Drake Milligan and his band stepped onto the America’s Got Talent stage in 2022, few expected what was about to hit. With his Texas charm, slick confidence, and a grin that said “watch this”, Drake introduced his own song — “Sounds Like Something I’d Do.” The audience leaned in, curious. Moments later, they were on their feet.From the first guitar riff, it was clear this wasn’t just another country singer. This was a showman. The swagger, the energy, the voice — pure Nashville gold. The judges couldn’t help but smile as Drake delivered every lyric with that old-school rockabilly fire that felt both classic and brand new.
When the song ended, the crowd roared. Howie Mandel called him “the new Elvis of country”, while Simon Cowell grinned, saying, “That was really authentic — that’s a hit song.” And they were right. Within hours, Drake’s song shot to the top of the iTunes country charts, turning his AGT debut into a breakout moment.
Drake didn’t stop there. Through every round, he stayed true to his roots — performing original songs, blending modern country with vintage soul. By the finale, he had cemented himself as one of the greatest country acts to ever hit the AGT stage, finishing in 3rd place but winning millions of hearts.
From that stage to the Grand Ole Opry, Drake Milligan proved one thing: real country never dies — it just finds new legends.
