He hopes to keep inspiring people with his music
Micah Cheatham, 19, wants to bring back the classic country sound.
“I’ve been playing music since I was about 11, but I never really took it seriously. It was always football first. Then I went to play college football, and I was there for about three months before I decided that I wanted to play music more.
“I’m trying out for The Voice in Houston in January. If that doesn’t work out, I’m going to try for America’s Got Talent in February.”
What’s your biggest challenge?
“Getting my name out there, because it seems like everybody’s trying to do it. I go around to bars to see if they’ll let me play. It’s a hustle, really, but that’s what you’ve got to do.
“People tell me that I inspire them with my music, which is just awesome. If I can use my music to help someone else, I can’t think of anything better.”
