10-year-old sensation Harper covers Ed Sheeran and Bring Me The Horizon on America’s Got Talent
After knocking everyone’s socks off with her Spiritbox cover, Harper has returned with an incredible take on Bring Me The Horizon and Ed Sheeran’s Bad Habits.

Remember earlier this year when Harper Jerret went viral for her devastating cover of Spritibox's Holy Roller on America's Got Talent? Well, she's back for round two and has gone biiig.
No sooner had Bring Me The Horizon brought out Ed Sheeran at Reading festival for their barnstorming rendition of Bad Habits, on the other side of The Pond, 10-year-old Harper is screaming it into the faces of baffled judges and a TV audience of millions. And she crushed it.
Opening by lying on floor of digital flowers, the performance ominously builds with Harper staring into Simon Cowell's dead eyes, before launching into her remarkable bloodcurdling scream for the Oli Sykes chorus. Flanked by an actual band rather than a backing track like her previous performance, and surrounded by balloon visuals (similar to those that BMTH actually use onstage) this felt like a massive step up for the metal-loving youngster who has won over countless non-believers.
After her last performance, Harper was invited onstage with Spiritbox in London. Will we see her share the stage with Bring Me The Horizon soon? Who can tell. But we cannot wait to see which track she takes on in the next round.
