This teenager hit it big especially this summer where his songs were played nonstop on the radio. His stuff soulful voice coupled with his guitar skills is the perfect recipe for success.

In his debut album, which released back in 2015 which was entitled Handwritten, Mendes also made his debut on the radio waves.
