Amelia doing very well in L.A.

Longtime friend and performer Keenan Rice of the "We Got It Covered" band was in Los Angeles last Wednesday and Thursday to spend time with Amelia Eisenhauer and her family as they took another step in the American Idol competition in stride.

Amelia Eisenhauer is a Top 24 semi-finalist on American Idol 2016. The Top 24 for season 15 were revealed in American Idol spoilers in December via a leaked list from The Idol Pad. This season's top 24 contestants are an uneven mix of guys and girls, with 13 female competitors, and only 11 male hopefuls.

An Amelia Eisenhauer American Idol audition video coming soon!

Amelia's semi-final performances are scheduled to be aired on both Wednesday and Thursday at 7 p.m. on the FOX network. She will perform a solo on Wednesday and a duet with a famous country singer on Thursday.

Rice said the family is hoping for a major announcement in the coming days as the competition continues.

Called a child prodigy by The Local Voice, Amelia Eisenhauer reportedly took her first steps toward a musical career when she was just six years old, and competed in the Kentucky Opry Talent Search when she was just 10. She has performed as a vocalist with a variety of bluegrass and country bands, and fronts her own group, The Eisenhauer Band, with her mother, brother Andy Eisenhauer, and producer Bryan Ward.

Amelia Eisenhauer was one of the lucky few contestants who was actually recruited to audition for American Idol 2016. The beautiful young singer and violinist was apparently garnering quite a bit of attention in her new hometown of Nashville after moving there to pursue her musical career.

So, stay tuned.
