Everyone was hoping this would happen and it actually did!

Mason Ramsey (aka the Yodelling Kid) has just gone from singing his songs to a handful of people in Walmart, to performing to thousands at the Coachella festival.

At just 11 years old, the rising star smashed his first Coachella performance on Friday afternoon as he took to the Sahara stage right before up-and-coming DJ Whethans set.

Seeing as crowds dont really start to gather until later on in the day, Mason drew quite the audience and even attracted the likes of Justin Bieber to his set.

The singer could be seen dancing around with his pals to the distant yodels of Masons cover of Lovesick Blues by country music legend Hank Williams.

Biebs even managed to get a sneaky selfie with his new icon backstage after Masons performance.

It was this hit that got the talent noticed when a video of him singing the tune went viral on Twitter.

Dressed in a little red bow-tie, shiny black cowboy boots and a crisp white shirt, the tween sung his heart out in the Walmart shopping aisle.

Despite some Twitter users poking fun at the kid, he was spotted by the likes of Ellen Degeneres and even Post Malone.

Just this month Mason racked up even more followers when he had a chat with Ellen on her show and once again performed the Hank Williams classic.

Whethan recently tweeted about the Golconda, Illinois performer as he jokingly hit out at those who said he bore a resemblance to the yodelling wonderkid.

And Post Malone also reached out to Ramseys team – but alas, hes already booked up and will be performing at the famous country venue the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee today.

This kid is actually taking the internet world by storm, and we cant wait to see what hes got lined up next.
