Laine Hardy and Jon Pardi Have Good Chemistry

This is the duo we never thought we wanted. They sure proved that this was American Idol’s finale with their performance of Pardi’s two hits.

The duo started the performance with Jon Pardi’s “Dirt on my Boots,” where the two were on top of the stage. The song lasted more than a minute until they transitioned to the next song.

The next performance was another hit of Jon Pardi. They performed “Night Shift,” and during their performance, the two singers let go of their guitars. It was an amazing show, and we can really see that Laine Hardy is holding his own against Pardi.

They jammed with the audience and really made their listeners a part of the performance. At the near end of the song, the judges and audience were really feeling the performance.

Right after the performance, Pardi went on to give a tight hug to the rising star that Laine Hardy is.

Laine Hardy went head to head with another amazing artist in the person of Alejandro Aranda. They were surely two of the best contestants on the show. But Laine Hardy’s devoted fans showed up more, so he was declared as the newest American Idol. He then debuted his song “Flame” right after being hailed as the new winner.
