The Windy City choir that caught the nation's eye will take the stage on "America's Got Talent" tonight, representing Leo High School with their harmonious vocals. A viral sensation turned talent show hopefuls, the all-boys choir is scheduled to appear in hopes of moving forward in the competition during the primetime slot from 7-9 p.m. CT.
According to a school announcement shared on social media and reported by NBC Chicago, the Leo High School choir will audition on tonight’s episode, with a watch party scheduled at the school from 5:45 to 9 p.m. The all-boys Catholic school, located on Chicago’s South Side, stands as a community cornerstone, and the choir’s performance carries both high stakes and the pride of their neighborhood.
What originally launched these boys into the public eye was a viral video posted by Audrina Sinclair after a visit to the school last February that racked up over 2.7 million views. "Leo is infectious," Sinclair said, "The young men inspire me, and the choir made me feel something. I'm so excited that the positive power of social media did its thing for the Leo boys! They deserved to be heard around the world," CBS News Chicago stated.
The anticipation has captured the hearts of Chicagoans and "America's Got Talent" fans alike, leaving the question of whether or not the choir will receive a "yes" from the judges. To find out, viewers will simply have to watch as the episode airs Tuesday at 7 p.m. CT, as per NBC Chicago.
