Just incredible. My favorite performance by Julia so far. Her voice is amazing.

@robertantonnyc

showing so many beautiful facets of her voice, so much sublety, fluidity, power. It felt like she really connected to this, it felt purely personal, powerful. Very well done.

OMG... I was literally clapping my right hand on the air while watching Julia !!! And scream " Girl U better SANG."... it's really 1st time I watch her sing from the ..since her audition

Julia has a very interesting backstory, she is from Cumberland, she is a senior at the University of Southern Maine, and recently found her birth mother in Guatemala, and she's trying to accomplish something big, to make her proud. She is well on her way to doing just that.

Keep following Julia on her journey, when American Idol airs Sunday & Monday nights at 8 pm, on ABC 7. It is also available to stream the next day on Hulu.
