Ryan Seacrest announced the results of fan voting during Sunday’s “This Is Me” episode of Idol.
Grace and Lauren were two of the top female country singers among the Season 18 cast.
But when it came time for their final judgment, the judges said they couldn’t decide which singer to advance, so they left it up to voter.
Grace now advances to next Sunday’s Top 20 show, where the coaches will perform from their homes and the judges will judge from theirs.
Both Grace and Lauren were 28 when they auditioned for Idol Season 18 and both live in Nashville.
A northern California native, Grace and collaborator Kyle Clouse formed a country band that performed around San Francisco before making the move to Nashville in 2017.
She’s released three singles as the Grace Leer Band, including “Goin’ Back Home,” which came out in February.
A former contestant on American Juniors when Ryan Seacrest was host, Grace auditioned for Idol with “Crowded Table” by The Highwomen and “Crazy” by Patsy Cline. She performed “Natural Women” in the Top 40 showcase round.
Lauren is from Louisville, Ohio, and moved to Nashville in 2014. She’s engaged to songwriter, producer Shawn Camp, who accompanied her to her Idol audition.
She impressed the judges with an original, “If I Can Lose You,” and her Idol appearance follows the January release of a full-length country album, “God Made a Woman.”
Lauren performed “Two More Bottles of Wine” by Emmylou Harris in the Hawaii showcase round.
