The Sharpe Family Singers, hailing from Basking Ridge, New Jersey, astounded the audience with a breathtaking rendition of the Disney hit “How Far I’ll Go” during their captivating performance on America’s Got Talent (AGT). Comprised of the talented mom, dad, a daughter, and three sons, this family has already gained immense popularity on various social media platforms like TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook, winning over millions of fans.
Having nurtured their musical talents from their home in Somerset County, the Sharpe Family Singers finally got the opportunity they had been longing for. With unwavering enthusiasm, they took the AGT stage by storm during the show’s 18th season audition, as expressed by Barbra Russell-Sharpe, the family’s matriarch: “We’ve been wanting to be here for years and we finally got our chance.”
Their love story, which extends beyond Barbra and her husband Ron Sharpe—both Broadway actors—adds an extra layer of charm to their performance. Ron fondly recalled their first kiss on stage before they were married, an endearing connection that has influenced their four children, all of whom have been singing since a young age.
The magical moment arrived when the Sharpe Family Singers mesmerized the AGT audience and judges with their powerful rendition of “How Far I’ll Go” from the beloved Disney movie “Moana.” Each family member showcased their exceptional vocal talents, earning a well-deserved standing ovation from the crowd and judges alike. AGT judge Sofía Vergara was spellbound, declaring, “That was perfection. You guys don’t even look real… and you sounded amazing.” Simon Cowell, communicating through Vergara due to a lost voice, described the performance as authentically “American as apple pie.”
Not only did the AGT judges appreciate their outstanding performance, but the Sharpe Family Singers also received high praise from their devoted fans. One fan expressed admiration for their harmonious singing and infectious energy, stating, “That was everything that song needed to be. Great energy, beautiful harmonies, and really fun and uplifting.” The Sharpe Family Singers have proven that their love, passion, and natural talent for music can create pure joy on stage, uplift the spirits of the audience, and radiate a positive light.
