Revision as of 03:14, 28 July 2016
Edgar is a family band act from Season 11 of America's Got Talent.
Background
The Edgar family is from Toluca Lake, California. The band, founded on January 16, 2015, features Nikki Leonti-Edgar, Ryan Edgar, and Jaslyn Edgar. [1]
Nikki Leonti grew up with her family in church. When she was 13, she won a contest with a local Christian radio station. Within a year, she had a record deal, doing arena tours and traveling all over. When she met a guy, their relationship moved quickly; before she knew it, she was pregnant with Jaslyn. Stores began taking her records off the shelves, and radio stations took her songs off the air. She went from touring the country to being completely rejected by the gospel community.
Nikki went on to lend her vocals as a backing singer for artists such as Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, CeeLo Green, Demi Lovato & Amy Grant to name a few. As a sought-after vocalist in Los Angeles she contributes her talent to Fox's hit show "Glee" as well as "American Idol", "The Voice", CW's "Oh Sit" and many others. She has also had success with many Disney TV shows and the upcoming Disney Movie "Teen Beach Movie". Her writings have found their way to commercials for "Ford", over 20 film and movie placements in the last two years, as well as artists such as Robin Thicke and Candace Glover. She has made appearances on "Ellen", "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" as well as a debut acting role in the Fall release of "Eternity the Movie". She was also one half of the group Nikki & Rich. [2]
