Dalton Dover started singing in church, but his love of performing didn’t kick in until his fifth grade talent show.
“I guess I discovered I could sing whenever I’d done my first talent show at school, and I started singing around school because all my friends were like, ‘Man, you could really sing.’ And I guess then I was just like, ‘Well, okay, I think I got something here.’”
The Rome, Georgia native was dared by his friends to perform a Justin Bieber song, which he did. He chose the pop star’s 2010 smash “Baby,” and he hasn’t stopped performing since.
“A couple of my buddies dared us to do a Justin Bieber song at my fifth-grade talent show, and we did and we crushed it. We won the talent show, and I think after that, I fell in love with performing and I never stopped doing it.”
Dalton is currently making his voice heard on the airwaves with his single, “Giving Up On That.”
