Tom Sandoval’s Band Would Be Great at Weddings

Simon Cowell says Tom Sandoval would make a ton of money in the music industry … as a wedding singer — not as a mainstream frontman.
We caught up with the “America’s Got Talent” judge and asked him about Sandoval’s performance on the show back in August … which Cowell lightly ripped apart — telling Sandoval he liked him and his group … but their performance of “Blinding Lights” didn’t sound good.
Cowell tells us Sandoval just didn’t really impress him — as much as his fans may have liked the performance … but, he could see Sandoval leading a “party band.”
SC points out there’s a ton of money in weddings and birthday parties … and, he thinks Sandoval and his group — Tom Sandoval and the Most Extras — would rake in the dough if they jumped into that space.
While Cowell doesn’t think Sandoval can sell records, we asked him if he’s interested in helping a new group do it … namely, does he plan on forming another new boy or girl band anytime soon?
Cowell — who played a major role in founding groups like One Direction and Fifth Harmony, and formed a group called December 10 in his docuseries last year — says he’s thinking about it … watch the clip all the way through to hear his full thoughts.
Bottom line … not every group has a Grammy-winning album in its future — but that doesn’t mean there’s no money to be made!
