It’s become nearly impossible to scroll through Twitter without a trace of Mason Ramsey, the 11-year-old yodeling extraordinaire who swept the Internet with his rendition of Hank Williams‘ “Lovesick Blues” from an aisle at his local Walmart. Fans of the viral video now have an opportunity to witness Ramsey’s talent in the flesh.
Hailing from small town Illinois, Ramsey has since taken his yodeling cross country to The Ellen Show after his performance became a massive meme, eliciting countless reactions and remixes. Now, Ramsey has been invited to return to his roots for a concert Wednesday (Apr. 11) — at the Walmart store that started it all in Harrisburg, Illinois.

For diehard Yodeling Boy fans who can’t make it to Illinois for the show, have no fear — Walmart will also be livestreaming Ramsey’s first proper concert on their Facebook and Twitter pages.
