A single dad stepped into the spotlight, gripping the microphone like it was the only thing keeping him standing. He’d lost his wife in a tragic accident, and every day since, he’s been doing his best to hold his little family together. Tonight, he wasn’t just singing—he was speaking to her. His voice trembled, not from stage fright, but from the weight of everything he’s carried in silence. As he began the Phil Collins classic, each lyric sounded like a prayer, a memory, a heartbeat that refused to fade. The crowd went still—no whispers, no movement, just raw emotion filling the room.

Matt Mauser, who has a sad family story behind him, also performed at the last audition for America’s Got Talent.

He lost his wife and the mothers of his three children in an accident last year, and found solace in music and singing with the support of friends.

Matt Mauser introduced himself in a previous show of American talent by singing the song ‘Against All Odds (Take A Look At Me Now)’, originally performed by English singer and musician Phil Collins.

Before that, he shared a sad family story – last year he lost his beloved wife, with whom he was a soulmate, in a helicopter crash. NBA star Kobe Bryant also lost his life in the same helicopter accident.

Listen to the exceptional talent of a contestant Matt Mauser, who showcased his singing talent at the audition of America’s Got Talent 2021 when he sang the song ‘Against All Odds (Take A Look At Me Now)’. Will he impress you too with his performance?
