Just three episodes remain before the “American Idol” finale performances on May 19. This Sunday, the final eight singers perform songs from the Queen catalog for a spot in the top six.

TU music department student Jeremiah Lloyd Harmon made it into the season’s eight finalists on April 21 with a performance of “Candle on the Water” from “Pete’s Dragon” in a Disney-themed episode.

The next day, in a private “listening session” for ‘Idol’ judges, media and influencers at EastWest Studios in Hollywood, Harmon gave an acoustic performance of The Beatles' “Blackbird” despite losing his voice due to a sinus infection.

Monday night’s “Meet Your American Idol” episode gave viewers a glimpse into the everyday lives of the eight finalists. Harmon revealed that in addition to singing and songwriting, he is a painter and former basketball player. He has also worked on a fishing boat in Alaska.

Watch Sunday, April 28 at 8 p.m. EST on ABC as Harmon and his seven fellow competitors perform Queen songs with guidance from celebrity mentor Adam Lambert, 2009 ‘Idol’ runner-up and current Queen front man. The top eight will also partner up for classic movie duet performances.

Voting opens at the start of the episode at AmericanIdol.com/vote, on the app and by text message. You can vote up to 10 times per platform. The top six competitors will be revealed at the end of the episode.
