September 21, 2012 By Mark Franklin 4

Well, you could see this coming from a million miles away. Kris Allen, winner of Season 8 of American Idol, is no longer an RCA Records artist.

September 21, 2012 By Mark Franklin 0

If you didn’t get enough Lauren Alaina Saturday night at the York Fair — because that was a pretty short nine-song set — the runner-up from American Idol Season 10 just announced her 18-City Inch-by-Inch Tour. Why the name? Well because Lauren is about to turn 18 and her new single is called “Eighteen Inches.”…

Meet Kelly Crapa of Team Blake on The Voice

September 21, 2012 By Mark Franklin 0

Kelly Crapa is one of those surviving contestants we met very briefly on The Voice. We saw her sing a tiny snippet of Taylor Swift’s “Sparks Fly.” We saw her land on Team Blake. That was it. But, apparently, she landed on the right team. In her Voice bio, we learn that Kelly, just 15,…
Adanna Duru, Season 3, The Voice
Meet Adanna Duru of Team Adam on The Voice

September 21, 2012 By Mark Franklin 4

Based on what I just heard on YouTube, The Voice cheated us by showing us so little of 15-year-old Adanna Duru. All we saw on The Voice was Adanna singing a snippet of “Edge of Glory” and landing on Team Adam. Adam’s reaction upon hearing her: “You’re 15 and already at that point. I’m even…

Meet Brian Scartocci of Team Adam on The Voice

September 21, 2012 By Mark Franklin 2

Brian Scartocci told The Voice he was trying to teach his children a lesson by trying out for the show. The 26-year-old from Austin, Texas, said he married his high school sweetheart and they had two children. But, by 2010, he says his marriage was crumbling because they’d gotten married too young. And it sounds…
Beat Frequency, Season 3, The Voice
Meet Beat Frequency of Team Christina on The Voice

September 21, 2012 By Mark Franklin 4

Duos don’t have a history of success on The Voice. The husband and wife team named Beat Frequency hopes to change that. The husband is 35-year-old Shawn Lewis, veteran of a Christian rock band. The wife is Natasha Neuschwander, 28, who has worked as a studio vocalist and professional sports dancer. They met in church…
JR Aquino, Season 3, The Voice
Meet JR Aquino of Team Cee Lo on The Voice

September 21, 2012 By Mark Franklin 2

No, JR Aquino doesn’t live in an igloo. Nor does he ice fish nor travel by dog sled. He does hail from Anchorage, Alaska, though, and the music scene up there isn’t exactly bustling. “When I was younger, there was no way to be heard,” he says. That’s why the 24-year-old turned to YouTube as…
Liz Davis, Season 3, The Voice
Meet Liz Davis of Team Blake on The Voice

September 21, 2012 By Mark Franklin 3

Liz Davis is from Madison, Mississippi. She has a touch of southern twang when she talks. She says she likes fishing. She likes riding four-wheelers for no reason. “I might be a fireball,” the 25-year-old says. On The Voice, you know what’s coming. A female country artist who’s likely to land on Team Blake. Liz…
