Viewers must save the air date of episode 2 of the show, as a series of beautiful performances are on their way. Last week, the network released a preview of the upcoming episode, which flashed a number of solo and duet performances from known and unknown singers.

Renowned singers like the five-time Grammy nominee Macy Gray and The Voice season 9 winner Jordan Smith will also make their appearance as contestants in the upcoming episode.

Here’s a complete list of the singers who will be seen in episode 2 of the American Song Contest:

The list roughly consists of solo singers like last week. Episode 1 featured 11 music artists who competed against each other with their original compositions to win the vote of the national jury and the viewers. The singers who appeared last week were:

Hueston, from Rhode Island, won the immediate vote of the jury for his impeccable performance of his own song, Held on Too Long. He was the only singer to clear for the semi-final rounds. Moreover, the remaining singers of his batch will find out which of the other three singers received votes to join Hueston in the semis.
