Michael and Bryson, two 17-year-old boys at Wall High School in Wall, Texas who went viral last month on the social media platform, Tiktok.
With 2.3 million views, the two boys got a lot of attention for their cover of the song “Evergreen” by Richy Mitch & The Coal Miners that they posted on their TikTok account, @michaelandbryson.
The boys posted their first video on Oct. 24 singing a cover of “Jersey Giant” by Tyler Childers and soon after posted the viral “Evergreen” cover along with a clip of them singing another song by Tyler Childers, which also got a lot of attention from viewers.
In their videos, Michael’s singing and Bryson’s guitar playing have caught the attention and pulled on the heart strings of more than a thousand people in the comments saying Michael’s voice is angelic and that Bryson’s guitar playing is absolutely on point.
“The guitar, the campfire, the singing, it’s just perfect,” one commenter said.
“Brought a smile to my face, music does so much you don’t understand how much I needed to hear this,” another commenter said.
A lot of commenters agree that both the boys are going places in the future as well as requesting more covers of songs like “Sailor Song” by Gigi Perez and “Riptide” by Vance Joy.
“We just enjoy the vibe of the campfire on a cold night,” Michael said.
This is where all of their videos so far take place. The two boys who have been friends for 10 years now say they were very surprised at how well the “Evergreen” cover performed.
“We were just messing around a couple months ago, and people had told us we sounded good and we should start posting,” Michael said.
According to a lot of popular musicians on Tiktok, that’s how they started out too.
According to Michael, both the boys have definitely thought of being a musician in the future with their biggest inspiration being Tyler Childers but no long-term plans are set in stone yet.
The boys are continuing to post covers of more songs on their Tik Tok account saying, “Learning a new song always makes us feel accomplished,” and that they’re “working on originals but nothing’s finalized yet.”
