In less than two weeks, 11-year-old Mason Ramsey has gone from regular Walmart singer to internet sensation to a performer at Coachella. Mason announced on Twitter that he will be performing at the California music festival with Whethan, a DJ, Friday at 2:45pm PT.

Mason went viral after a video of him yodeling in an Illinois Walmart store was shared on Twitter—and he was quickly propelled into stardom. Just this week, he appeared on Ellen and performed a concert at Walmart that was live-streamed on Facebook. The song that made Mason famous, Hank Williams’ “Lovesick Blues,” also rose to the top of Spotify’s charts.
