Beach Avenue Brings Feel-Good Vibes with “Coming Your Way” | America’s Got Talent Auditions
Not every band walks into America’s Got Talent with a song of their own — and makes the entire country sing along.
But that’s exactly what happened when Beach Avenue, a laid-back pop-rock band from Milford, Connecticut, hit the AGT stage and performed their original track, “Coming Your Way.”
The moment was electric, the message was clear: this band is bringing the good vibes — and they’re just getting started.
🏖️ Meet Beach Avenue: Small-Town Band with Big-Time Charm
Made up of college friends with a shared passion for songwriting and jamming by the coast, Beach Avenue came to AGT to show the world that original music deserves a shot at the spotlight.
With lead singer Nick Fradiani (who would later go on to win American Idol!), the band brought smooth vocals, catchy hooks, and a refreshing sound that screamed summer road trip anthem.
“This is a song we wrote together — and we hope it gets stuck in your head,” they told the judges.
🎶 The Performance: Light, Bright, and Radio-Ready
From the first guitar strum of “Coming Your Way”, the crowd started moving.
The song had it all:
-
A melodic guitar riff that felt instantly familiar
-
A hook-filled chorus that had people clapping along
-
And a tight rhythm section that gave off beachy, feel-good energy
Their harmonies were clean, their vibe was effortless, and the chemistry?
Undeniable.
By the end, the crowd was swaying — and the judges were smiling from ear to ear.
