Billboard charting quartet Sons of Serendip won the hearts of fans and judges alike as finalists on NBC’s America's Got Talent (season 9) with their ethereal and emotionally stirring interpretations of pop music, arranged with a unique blend of vocals, harp, piano, and cello. Sons of Serendip are Kendall Ramseur, cello, Cordaro Rodriguez, piano, Mason Morton, harp, and Micah Christian, lead vocals. A year after finishing graduate school at Boston University, the group formed in 2014 specifically for the reality competition. They gained national attention in 2014 as celebrity judges Howie Mandel, Mel B, Heidi Klum, and Howard Stern voted them through multiple rounds and into the quarterfinals.

With four successful albums (Sons of Serendip, Christmas: Beyond the Lights, Life + Love, and Mosaic) and soulful live performances, Sons of Serendip has lifted audiences both nationally and internationally. Their most notable performances include collaborations with Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops, the Plymouth Philharmonic Orchestra, the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, and Cynthia Erivo, as well as a performance for the Creative Arts Emmy Awards (FXX).

In 2019, Sons of Serendip returned to the America’s Got Talent stage, as they were selected to compete in the first ever America’s Got Talent: The Champions. The quartet competed alongside 50 of the winners and finalists from America's Got Talent and Got Talent’s worldwide. In 2020, the group performed for Oprah Winfrey’s 2020 Vision Tour’s closing celebration in Denver, CO, and most recently in 2022, they were invited to be one of the artists representing the United States in Dubai at EXPO 2020.
