Colton Lewis

“Colton is an upcoming senior at Permian High School in Odessa Tx, where he’s deeply involved in theatre, serves as the MC of pep rallies, and is pretty much the human embodiment of a confetti cannon🎉. He also leads worship at The Bridge Church, where he somehow manages to be both reverent and ridiculously charming

Known for his big voice, and even bigger personality, Colton thrives on stage, in front of crowds, or anywhere there’s a microphone he can “borrow.” Whether he’s belting a song, hyping up a school gymnasium, or delivering a sarcastic one-liner with perfect timing, Colton brings the drama—in the best possible way.

He’s basically the love child of a Disney Channel original movie and a youth group lock-in. Buckle up.”
