In a preview for The Voice episode coming this Sunday, fans were able to get a small snippet of what’s to come from Jack Vidgen, who will return to the stage after eight years.

Judge Delta Goodrem looks particularly stunned by the return of the Australia’s Got Talent winner from 2011.

“What a voice!” she is seen saying in astonishment while fellow judge Guy Sebastian watches on equally as impressed by the young powerhouse who is competing for a spot to the next round of The Voice.

In the small snippet, Jack admitted he “hadn’t been on stage in over five years”.

“I’m not little Jack Vidgen anymore,” he declared. 

At just 14, Jack Vidgen used his powerhouse vocals to take him right to the finals of Channel 7’s Australia’s Got Talent and eventually win the competition in 2011.

As part of his prize, the now 22-year-old scored a contract with Sony Music and released two studio albums, as well as winning $250,000 in prize money.

However, despite the heights of success Jack reached at such a young age, the singer walked away from the showbiz scene and music altogether for over five years before returning for his biggest comeback.

Vidgen surprised fans on Instagram when he revealed he would be a contestant on this year’s season of The Voice Australia two weeks ago.

Jack sat down with 9Honey saying the experience has been “wild” for him and his family.

“It’s been pretty crazy. I’m so excited, I just can’t wait for it to air. My friends and my family are all just super excited.”

Deciding to go back onto a talent show wasn’t something Jack found easy, but said The Voice just seemed right.

“I just feel like The Voice portrays people’s stories in such a real way, in such an authentic way, and that’s really where I was at in how I wanted to go about it,” he explained.

“I really wanted to be able to come back and tell my story and tell people what’s happened over the past eight years since the show, and do that in a real way.”

For a number of years, Jack decided to leave music behind so he could find his “identity”.

“I needed this time to step away, because I didn’t really have that — I dived right into it and hit the ground running. I was doing that for a few years. So I needed some time to do some normal things, live some normal life as a teenager, and grow up and come into adulthood, and work out what I want,” he explained.

“Now, loving music and falling back in love with music has been the best thing ever. Nothing brings me the same kind of joy that singing does.”

The young singer has faced scrutiny from fans in the past for the drastic facial changes made since he was a baby-faced 14-year-old however he says it doesn’t bother him.

“I’ve dealt with it before and I’ve grown a thick skin, and I know that there’s lots of people that love to hate. I can’t do anything about that. All I’m here to do is share my story and sing, and all the rest is white noise,” he said.

The Voice Blind Auditions continues on Sunday at 7 pm on Channel 9.
