Central New York native and American Idol contestant, Ethan Harris kicked off FrogFest by performing the National Anthem with the Notre Dame Jr/Sr High School's NJROTC Color Guard and Army National Guard.

From the American Idol stage, to FrogFest, Ethan Harris will open this year's event June 14th at Herkimer County Fairgrounds. He'll also sing the National Anthem with the color guard, to get things off on the right note. Ethan stopped by the studio this morning to talk FrogFest and his time on Idol.

Congratulations to Central New York's Ethan Harris who made the 'American Idol' Top 30. Unfortunately, Kaitlyn Jackson of Norwich wasn't seen since her moving audition, when she sang the song for her grandfather. She did not make it through.

Did Ethan Harris make the 'American Idol' Top 30?  The judges started making final cuts but we won't know Ethan's fate until tonight. We did find out Dexter Roberts will represent country, making the top 15 boys. We heard the other country boys, CJ Harris and Casey Thrasher sing against each other, but the show ended before we heard which will move on.

Still no siting of locals Ethan Harris or Kaitlyn Jackson on 'American Idol,' as the group round began. We did get to see country boys Ben Briley, Casey Thrasher, and Dexter Roberts come together to form 'Backstreet Cowboys' and sing the Backstreet Boys 'I Want it That Way.'

Ethan Harris of Central New York is Hollywood bound on American Idol. He received his golden ticket after performing 'You'll Think of Me.' The judges loved him and so do we.

He stopped by the studio to talk about his experience and what's next.

If you were at FrogFest this past summer, you may remember Ethan Harris who sang the National Anthem.  As a holiday treat, he's recorded an acoustic version of 'O Holy Night' and shared it on our Facebook page to wish us all a blessed holiday season.  Love his dad's comment.  Can you tell he's a proud papa?
