Viral Voice Lexi Mae Walker Performs 'The Star-Spangled Banner'

Viral sensation Lexi Mae Walker belts out the patriotic lyrics to 'The Star-Spangled Banner' with just her voice and a guitar.

In 1814, Francis Scott Key penned the iconic song during The War Of 1812. British forces bombed Fort McHenry, but the U.S. proved victorious during the battle. The next morning, Francis Scott Key spotted the American flag flying over the fort and he was immediately inspired. In 1931, The United States Of America officially adopted ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ as our anthem.

“O! say can you see by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?”

We first met Lexi Mae Walker when she performed an incredible rendition of 'Let It Go' from the animated movie, Frozen. The video was posted to YouTube and instantly went viral. From that moment on, this young girl has continued to share her voice with the world. Today, she's taking one of the hardest songs to sing and she completely nails it.

'The National Anthem' is full of high notes that are not easy to hit but Lexi makes it sound effortless. This young girl has so much talent and I'm excited to see where the future takes her.
