Brooke Barrettsmith, American Idol 5

Brooke Barrettsmith performed on the American Idol premiere with her sister Leah Barrettsmith. Brooke Barrettsmith is a 23 year old female from Spring Grove, Illinois. Brooke sang “It’s In His Kiss” during her audition.




The Barrettsmith girls were introduced in a lengthy background segment, involving their hometown of Spring Grove, Illinois. The sisters introduced the “infamous 4-way stoplight from their hometown.” They also introduced the World’s Largest Corn Maze, which is cut into a tribute to the Chicago Bears winning the Super Bowl in 1985.

What the background segment that portrayed them as small-town girls did not mention is that Brooke and Leah Barrettsmith are experienced Christian Rock musicians. The sisters have been in a band called Two 4 One, which won a contest held by Morgan Cryar and Premier Records where the prize was full production of a single called "My 911."

Two 4 One at one time had their own website, but the website is no longer online. History of the website shows that in the past the girls had a development deal with Word Records of Nashville, Tennessee. The website also mentioned that they had shared the stage with artists such as “Steven Curtis Chapman, Audio Adrenaline, Tait, Toby Mac, SuperChick, Jake, Paul Coleman Trio, Sonic Flood, Hangnail, By The Tree, Chris Rice, Jeremy Camp and many others.”
