About Forte

In the two years since their magical journey to the finals on season 8 of America’s Got Talent, Forte has quickly established themselves as the hottest new crossover sensation and the most successful group to be launched off of the venerable reality competition series. Forte has gained widespread acclaim from insiders in the popular music industry, like MTV News, as well as established opera companies like The Metropolitan Opera and Los Angeles Opera, firmly entrenching their position as the first truly widely accepted crossover group.

Having met just days before their first audition for America’s Got Talent, Forte mesmerized millions on their journey to the finals on the eighth season of the top rated reality competition series. Solo artists in their own right, Josh Page, Sean Panikkar, and Hana Ryu combine their individual talents to create one incredible, multicultural vocal force. After a series of ovations on the show (including the longest standing ovation in the history of America’s Got Talent during the Top 12 Round), they were joined by crossover sensation Josh Groban in a duet for the show’s finale.

Within moments of leaving the America’s Got Talent finale stage, Forte was signed to Columbia/SYCO records literally in the wings of the famed Radio City Music Hall. Their self-titled debut album topped the Barnes and Noble bestseller list and rose to #2 on the Amazon Best Sellers, behind only Lady Gaga.

Forte’s first single, Game of Thrones, off of their new album The Future Classics has already gone viral on YouTube and solidified their position as innovators in the classical crossover genre. With their ability to bring classical power to modern music, Forte is poised to remain as the top tenor group in the United States.

Forte has brought their epic stage presence and power to live performances throughout the country. Forte’s first post AGT performance was at New York City’s Carnegie Hall where they were invited to headline for Kate Winslet’s Golden Hat Foundation. They went on to perform at the National Tree Lighting in Washington DC, where they sang for President and Mrs. Obama in front of a national television audience alongside the likes of Mariah Carey, Renee Fleming, and Aretha Franklin.

Forte became the only act from season 8 of AGT to headline their own solo show in Las Vegas, where they held a New Year’s residency at the renovated Tropicana Las Vegas. Recently, Forte has performed in sold out festivals and concerts across the US including The Festival of the Arts Boca, The Bloomsburg Fair, Central City Opera’s Theatre of Dreams Gala, and the Fort Worth Opera Festival at Bass Hall, among many others.

Forte’s second studio album, The Future Classics, has just been released, followed by live performances across the country.
