At 6 feet 3 inches, Bryce Cronan towered over the rest of the Baylor freshman class, and his broad frame made him a solid fit as a linebacker on the school’s junior-varsity team.
When he starts singing, however, he shows a surprisingly gentle side:
“Let’s just look up at the stars, ask ourselves who we used to be,” he crooned in the opening lines to “Fun,” the first song he wrote.
