A Black Hills State University student will appear on season 22 of American Idol.
Logan Culhane is a freshman studying music and theatre at BHSU.
She said her family encouraged her to give auditions to the show a shot. After making it through rounds of auditions she was invited to the final filmed audition with judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie.
“It was definitely a super new experience,” said Culhane in a BHSU press release. “I’ve never experienced that kind of atmosphere. I was so nervous, and it didn’t feel real until I was going into the audition room with them. You look at these people that are so incredibly talented and have so much presence in the industry, and it’s like wow!”
The Mitchell native will sing on the big screen Sunday, Feb. 18 on ABC.
