Brundage, who grew up in the Capital Region and graduated from high school in Schenectady, relocated to Los Angeles after gaining national attention on America’s Got Talent. The wildfires, fueled by strong winds and dry conditions, have engulfed large areas near his home, leaving him among the many evacuees seeking safety. He tells NewsChannel 13:
