If you haven’t heard of Carson Peters yet, that is all about to change. This 11-year-old has been in the country and bluegrass music circuit for a few years, but his recent rendition of “Blue Moon of Kentucky” brought down the house.

NBC’s “Little Big Shots” is a television series that showcases kids and teenagers who are exceptionally awesome at their chosen hobbies. From singing to performing to dancing, they have featured all sorts of acts on their show. However, the most inspiring performance to date definitely came from Fiddlin’ Carson Peters.

From eastern Tennessee, Peters has been playing the fiddle since he was about 3 years old and is now touring the nation to showcase his skills. He is truly an exceptional young musician and a real prodigy.
