DES MOINES, Iowa — This Sunday's episode of "American Idol" will feature auditions from two Iowans: Sam Moss from Winterset, a town still recovering from the fatal March 5 tornadoes, and Haley Slaton from Cedar Rapids.
You can catch both performances at 7 p.m. on Local 5.
Moss is also hosting a virtual watch party that night. You can find information on how to sign up on her website.
She is also documenting her excitement on her Instagram page, which includes a video showing Katy Perry on set wearing a shirt that reads "Sam & Lydia & Grace."
Perry joins Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie as this season's judges alongside host Ryan Seacrest.
Moss and Slaton have big shoes to fill — Clarksville, Iowa native Maddie Poppe won the show in 2018.
