WEST POINT, N.Y. -- Weeks after performing on NBC's The Voice, Staff SGT Jeremy Gaynor (Lead male vocalist of the West Point Band) relives those few nerve-wracking moments. "I was just so ready to perform and sing to the back of the chairs, it was amazing," said Gaynor. He impressed all four judges, who turned their chairs around showing interest in him. And with production now on break, Gaynor said he's back where it all started.
With his West Point Band at the United States Military Academy Friday, Gaynor said it was his commander here that encouraged him to audition for the show. "I saw it as an opportunity to tell the Army story. I went up and auditioned and it's just became an amazing journey from there," said Gaynor. Gaynor has been in the Army since 2009 and said he started singing when he was a child. In 2010, he started performing with the Army Entertainment Detachment in Kentucky - eventually landing with the West Point Band as lead male vocalist in 2013. Read More
