Los Angeles — The big night has arrived.
After weeks of incredible acts of talent, the final 10 contestants will take the stage to find out who is the winner of America's Got Talent.
Tennessee native Michael Ketterer has been a front-runner all season long, impressing judge Simon Cowell from his first audition.
Ketterer performed "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" as his final piece in the competition.
"I felt like okay that was my last performance I gave it my all, put it all out there," Ketterer said.
Tonight Ketterer will perform the piece for the final night of America's Got Talent.
"I'm on cloud nine about this song, can't wait for you to hear it, it's like Garth reached into my heart and pulled out the lyrics of this song," Ketterer said.

"To perform it at the finale is another dream that's come true around this place."
Dreams have been coming true for Ketterer since the moment he took the stage for the very first audition. Throughout the show, he's melted hearts, drawn tears and brought judges and audience to their feet.
The pediatric nurse, husband and father of six says it's been a long journey building up to this moment.
"My family, we've been through a lot, and me personally going through some tough times, the number one consistency in my life has been God," Ketterer said.
Ketterer says he already feels like a winner from getting this life-changing experience and is most proud that his kids got to see him take on this challenge.
"The biggest thing for me is my kids, getting to see their dad take it on, take the risk and put it out here in front of the world," Ketterer said.
The show will also include special performances from violinist Lindsey Stirling, comedian David Spade and band KISS.
The winner will take home a $1 million grand prize and headline the “America’s Got Talent Live” stage show in November at Paris Theater at Paris Las Vegas.
Auditions for the next season are already underway, interested acts can submit and audition online or register for auditions in Knoxville this November online at www.AGTauditions.com.
