AveIf there is one amazing thing I have learned about six year old music prodigy Avett Ray Maness is that despite the fact that is blind in one eye with a visual impairment in the other eye is that he has the musical gift of admiring classic music since he was born in Dayton Ohio.
I have seen television ads stating that young children who listen to classic music and uplifting music have better chances of developing into smart young children as they grow up into the age of accountability.
Sara Moore who is the mother of Avett knew that her son has a gift for music when he was one year old when he played a children’s tune called “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” on the piano.
I do not know if Avett has any relatives in his family tree that has musicians. Maybe it is his gift from God to learn how to play classical music as well as music from the Rock And Roll era and today’s pop musicians to the delight of concert goers who attend his shows in the Dayton area.
Since we are in the era of You Tube and other social media outlets, Avett has the potential to be the next musical superstar in the near future.
Hopefully Avett will remember the saying from the late Casey Kasem who was the former host of “America’s Top 40” when his final comments on his radio show were “Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.”
I saw the little boy on the news, incredible.
The majority of musicians that were famous usually began their careers in show business as either pre teens or teenagers.
Lovely to encourage a child, nice story
My pleasure to share the story of a six year old child who entertains people in his home state of Ohio.
No wonder I have never really heard of Joshua.
It is a double edged sword of fame that every celebrity living or dead has stated in interviews.
The boy is a real phenomenon … it looks like they are
Social media is able to make budding stars famous these days than in the era where Stevie Wonder and the Jackson Five when they did talent shows in their hometowns before they became famous on variety shows on television.
It is amazing that a six year old artist is a music star like Avett is already doing shows in his home state in Ohio since there are not many artists that started their careers at his age since most music stars that I know of started their recording careers at teenagers like Stevie Wonder and the late Fats Domino.
I do not remember many artists that I grew up listening around the 1970s that started their careers at six years of age. Most of them were teenage music idols.
That is what many blogger have said about the late Michael Jackson and other child actors that they did not have a decent childhood due to the fame in the entertainment business.
What a cool story 🙂 thanks for sharing this!
I am amazed that a six year old child became a star thanks to social media.
I remember Joshua Bell, he became a star (he was once considered the best violin player in the world at age 9) But his path was much longer and harder!
Joshua Bell does not ring a bell with me. However the road to childhood fame is long and hard.
he was a classical violinist in the midwest many years ago (more than 30).
