Early Life
Mackenzie Sol was born in Sunderland, England, on 4th September, 2000, into a musical family. His father George Williamson and mother Nicola Brown were both professional singers and toured the UK regularly as tribute acts for Motown.
This kind of environment helped introduce Mackenzie to live performances: It was reported that before he was two years old, he was performing with his parents. His first significant appearance in the public light was as a four-year-old in 2007 as he auditioned for The X Factor UK.
Simon Cowell and the judges are impressed by him but were born too early for the show, and his videos have been trending online since his audition. The ensemble really became one of the first viral moments that saw a British kid singer. Mackenzie wanted to develop his skills, and hence, he got stage training and singing lessons from professionals.
As a boy and early teenager, he was a part of London’s West End theater, playing Billy Elliot, the main character in the popular musical. He was also cast in Oliver! and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. He also played youth football for Lumley FC before spending 100% of his time in the entertainment industry. As a teenager he was going to LA to give him a better life in music, acting and TV.
Career
Mackenzie Sol’s TV/digital media career goes hand-in-hand with her music career and her acting career. He has made his acting debut on the Air Bud Entertainment Pup Star movie series as the character “P.U.P.” He also continued his work in the theater and eventually started to dabble in commercial music.
Mackenzie also has several original singles with a blend of pop, R&B, and modern-style music. He’s worked with some of the music industry’s most esteemed artists, such as iconic songwriter Diane Warren. He has been an opening act for big-time stars such as Jennifer Hudson, Josh Groban and Babyface, adding more stardom to his live performances.
Mackenzie Sol appeared on the 22nd season of American Idol in 2024 and made a great impression on the judges, which included Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie. He managed to move from the Hollywood Week round and the Hawaii round to the Top 20 competitors of the competition, thus gaining a large following in the United States as well.
AGT
His next career highlight was when he auditioned for America’s Got Talent in 2026. Fans raved about how Mackenzie’s emotional performance of Sombr’s “Back to Friends” got him all the judges’ ju-ju juice and landed him with Mel B’s much-sought-after Golden Buzzer, which immediately took him to the live shows. Another big moment for him—almost 20 years after his well-known ‘X Factor UK’ performance as a child, he was given the opportunity to meet Simon Cowell.
