In season five of American Idol, Taylor Hicks beat out Kellie Pickler. Now, six years later, he is following Pickler into the country music world and is currently in the studio recording a new album. He has expectations of having a new single to radio sometime over the summer and an album later in 2012.
In June 2012, Hicks will begin a residency at Bally’s Las Vegas, becoming the first Idol in history to secure a residency in Las Vegas.

Great live performer that really will do well in Vegas, I believe.
ReplyDeleteCan. not. wait. for that album!!
No limits to what he can do! Can't wait for his new album!
ReplyDeleteThis should be awesome! What a performer, and a Southern Gentleman through and through!
ReplyDeleteCountry Music is a great fit for him. Go for it Taylor!
Taylor did not JUST go Country. He has always played a lot of country roadhouse music. He is just a great live musician and coming from the south has a wide range of musical styles he draws from in his concerts.
ReplyDeleteI'm NOT a country music fan and even I am looking forward to what he'll put out on this new album. I am a fan of his voice and showmanship, though.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the new album and see what Taylor brings to country.
ReplyDeleteI may just "go country" if Taylor is singing it. AWESOME performer and great guy.
