Originally from Nashville, TN, 13-year-old Kennedy Noel grew up in a musical family and has been performing for as long as she can remember. In addition to writing her own songs, the Majors & Minors cast member played the piano for Kelly Clarkson at the 2006 Grammy Awards. "Majors & Minors is probably one of the biggest things that's ever happened in my life," Kennedy tells J-14. "It's almost as if the show were designed for me personally, because it has every little bit that I could ever want and need. It's helped me so much!"
