The contest on American Music Contest is getting fierce.
Earlier than this week’s festivities may just start, final week’s effects had been printed. Representing Rhode Island, singer-songwriter Hueston gained an automated shuttle to the semi-finals by way of the juried panel final week, leaving 3 spots to be had from the batch of performers.
The rest semi-finals spots had been decided by way of a blended jury and fan vote.
AleXa, a Ok-pop artist from Oklahoma, and Christian Pagàn, a Latin pop singer from Puerto Rico, complex after hanging in each the jury and fan most sensible 4. The general spot went to Grammy winner Michael Bolton, who was once stored by way of the fan vote. By no means underestimate the Bolton groupies.
All 4 artists advance to the semi-finals, which start April 25.
Some of the highlights of the March 28 episode had been performances by way of Grammy winner Macy Grey, representing Ohio, and previous The Voice winner Jordan Smith, repping Kentucky.
Smith, winner of season 9 of The Voice in 2015, sang “Sparrow,” a tune impressed by way of his religion. His efficiency ended with a pyro display whilst he was once surrounded by way of a choir clad in all-white. Co-host Kelly Clarkson predicted it would were sufficient to provide Smith the automated jury vote.
