(KGTV) -- Sunday marks night one of American Idol's two-night finale on ABC. The question on everyone minds is of course - who will win?
The American Idol season finale starts Sunday night at 8 p.m. on ABC.
Will it be Iowa native Maddie Poppe? The 20-year-old is a singer-songwriter with a country, folk kind of sound. More than once she's stunned the judges with her gritty voice and mastery of multiple instruments.
Is it 19-year-old Caleb Lee Hutchinson? The deep, country voice is unexpected and even surprised Judge Luke Bryan. But just like his cast mates, Caleb has been crushing it every week.
Or will it be 18-year-old Gabby Barret? The Pittsburgh native has confidence and vocal range that made the judges rise when she belted out her version of Prince's, "How Come You Don't Call Me Anymore" during the Top 7 performances.
OH YEAH! Who’s ready to 👑 the next #AmericanIdol?!
